1405 Stratton Drive - Potomac Woods - $700,000

Listed by Long and Foster

Google Map Here

Potomac Woods is on the east side of Falls Road between Dunster and Wootton Parkway. A mix of colonials and splits - most were built in the early 1960's. This is a bargain neighborhood in Potomac. Because it is in the Richard Montgomery School Cluster - you get a lot more for the money then similar properties in Churchill or Wootton districts. Richard Montgomery is still one of the best schools in the State - and houses a renowned IB program. This is a must see community for those that want the Potomac address at a Rockville price.

This home is lovely from the street view. The brick is clean and yard is tidy - even after the prolonged snow. The front door is covered and brings you into a nice marble foyer. Four steps up on the left takes you upstairs to the Living and Dining Rooms with nice wood floors and tasteful paint. The kitchen is modern with granite and nice cabinets. It is small - but very well designed. You step down to a breakfast area with views of a lovely fenced back yard. Two more steps down you are in a great Family Room with Fireplace and sliding door out to a screened porch.

The yard is lovely and would be a haven for dogs or kiddies. A gardener has lived in this home at some point as the bulbs and landscape look great.

The basement is finished with Pergo and provides plenty of extra space.

Upstairs are 3 good size bedrooms that share an updated hall bath. The master bedroom is large for an early 60's house and offers all you need for sleeping and storage.

Overall - this home is a fantastic value. Ready to move in - plenty of built-in cabinets - a turnkey home.

At $700K - this should move pretty quickly. The only thing that may turn folks off is the lack of garage. A 1 car car-port could be easily converted - but what a value. Make an offer on this beauty before too many folks see it. Nice home for the money! This should sell within 5% of list within 30 days.
