This community is south of Wootton Parkway and West of Seven Locks Road in the Richard Montgomery School Cluster. Built in the late 70's these homes are traditional colonials and splits with a modern flair. Priced right, these homes generally sell quickly because of their great locale and proximity to major commuting routes.

This home looked familiar when I arrived to tour. After walking in - I swore I saw a similar home in the past. I did - This was a home I reviewed in December of 2008. It never sold and was taken off the market. The owners re-did the kitchen with granite and gray tile and now have it back on the market.

Why re-invent the wheel - nothing has changed - Here is what I wrote in 12/08

Built in 1978, this home was way ahead of its time. Cathedral Ceilings, open space and good flow make this home very attractive. With 4 BR and 2.5 Baths, this home has an additional BR and full bath in the finished basement. Total square footage is just over 3700 on three levels.

With new carpet, updated baths and recent paint; this home shows very well. It has great curb appeal and sits on a nice lot that is just under a half acre. A two level deck from the kitchen and family room give nice room for summer entertaining.

The only down side to this home is it's proximity to Seven Locks Road. The home backs to the main road and although fenced, the traffic can be distracting. A city dweller would not even notice the noise. Someone looking for a quiet lot with privacy will be disappointed.

The home is priced at the top of the market. Although it shows very well, it will not get top dollar because of its location. This is about $50K too high. Look for this one to settle around $739K.
