Fox Hills West is a very sought after community near Falls Road Park. Built in the early 1970's this is a stable move up community for those that need larger homes and still want the Potomac cache.

This home has nice curb appeal, with pretty lawn and lovely brick veneer. You enter the foyer which has grey slate floors which were common in the original homes and have held up well over the past 35 years. There is a large living room on the right side of the foyer with hardwood floors, and a cozy family room on the left. The family room has a large bricked wall with fireplace. The wood paneling is dated but makes the room feel rather cozy.

There is a step down into a mud room from the dining area. The room holds the washer and dryer and is floored in some type of Pergo style wood. There is also a small sun room on the back of the home. It looks to be prefab and is not heated or cooled. It is a nice touch but a bit small for my taste.

The kitchen is older but is decent condition. White wood cabinets with older appliances. The floor is some type of laminate with stenciled country design.

The upstairs has a master suite and 3 other bedrooms. The hall bath is brown and a bit dated. The master bath has the original shower stall and tile.

The in ground basement has a Nanny bedroom with a nice newer bath, recreation room with a wet bar and plenty of room for exercise equipment.

The backyard is flat and lovely. Nicely landscaped with plenty of shade. A buyer with a green thumb will be thrilled with a yard they can work with.

This is a nice home in a great neighborhood. Although this home is in good shape, there is a lot of upgrading to do for a new owner. Baths and kitchens are expensive and paneling in the family room would be on the short list to do. I think that this will sell and settle in the neighborhood of $735K when all is said and done.
