This home is a lovely custom Dutch Colonial in the Potomac Village community. Located a short walk from the village this home shows very well. With 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, this home is typical size for homes in this community.

The home has a covered porch leading to the front door to protect your guests from the elements. The foyer is bright with bleached (pickled?) hardwood that is well maintained. A large skylight in the 2 story foyer keep the foyer and open stairway upstairs bright and airy. The family room is also bright and sunny. The unusual "pebble" wall treatment will appeal to some, but turn off others. It has the look of high quality and expensive. I am not sure if it will be difficult to remove.

The kitchen has been updated and looks great. High end cabinets and appliances will keep any cook happy. Tile flooring in the kitchen looks good and is certainly durable. The dining room too has been beautifully decorated.

The bedrooms upstairs are all adult sized. The master is well done with plenty of storage and a nice big master bath. A fireplace here is a nice touch and warms up the space. The 2 additional baths serving the upstairs are nicely remodeled, especially the bath done in black and white tile.

The basement is fully finished with a bedroom and bath appropriate for a nanny or teen child. There is also a nice office and a cedar "room" for any clothing or linens that need safe storage.

The best part of this home is the backyard. A beautiful pool and patio is surrounded by fabulous landscaping. It really feels like an oasis in the back. Very private, fenced and a gardeners dream. This would be a fabulous place for a cocktail party on a cool summer night.

This home shows beautifully. The wallpaper and decor may not be to every ones taste, but it is all well done and quality work. The current owners have art that is displayed throughout the home. This house is a perfect showcase for artwork. Great light, plenty of wall space and a modern bent to the architecture.

Although a nice home, I feel this may be priced at a premium. There is lots of competition in this price range and only the most aggressively priced homes are moving. This home would be more reasonably priced at $1.25mm.
