SOLD - Laurel Leaf - Fawsett Farms Manor - $1,143,000

This is a great home for anyone looking in this price range that works in D.C.

On the Cabin John side of Potomac, this neighborhood is a hop , skip and jump from MacArthur Boulevard and the Parkway for a quick commute into D.C.

Fawsett Farms Manor is a beautifully maintained community built in the late 1980's. This home is on a quiet street backing to woods. This home is perched on a 1/3 acre lot with a steep grade in the rear. The view from all windows is trees and will please the nature lover. Those that want to use the yard for recreation will be disappointed as much of the lot is unusable because of the slope.

This is a good looking home. The brick exterior is conservative and suits the neighborhood. The interior has high ceilings and high level of finish. I was told that this was a builders personal residence and many upgrades you see, are not found in other neighborhood homes.

Although nice, the home is a bit dated. I think the price reflects this fact and takes into consideration that some updates will need to be made. On a square footage basis the price is fair for the neighborhood. It is just a matter of time to find the right person or family that will appreciate it.
