About the Listing WHTR1 - 70592
Set in Potomac’s highly desirable Ridgeleigh neighborhood, this elegant brick center-hall Colonial offers a rare combination of timeless architecture, generous living space, and an exceptionally private parkland setting. Situated on a beautifully landscaped 0.29-acre lot backing to protected parkland, the home provides a sense of quiet retreat while still providing easy access to Route 270 and the Beltway, shopping, parks, and recreational amenities. An oversized front-entry two-car garage, and expansive driveway provide ample parking for family and guests. Inside, the home is meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed for both formal entertaining and everyday living. Family room with working fireplace, along with gracious living and dining rooms are complemented by an eat-in kitchen overlooking the protected parkland beyond, creating a backdrop of natural beauty throughout the main living spaces. A spacious all season sunroom offers an ideal setting for dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the home’s peaceful surroundings. The private manicured grounds further enhance the feeling of seclusion and calm. The residence offers five spacious bedrooms and three and a half baths, including two recently renovated bathrooms. The fully finished lower level adds substantial flexibility, with a bedroom, full bath, and family room that can easily serve as guest accommodations or a private retreat. Two dedicated office spaces provide uncommon versatility and make the home especially well-suited for today’s work-from-home needs. The kitchen is appointed with premium Miele appliances and a new JennAir cooktop, while a whole-house generator adds an important measure of comfort and peace of mind. Throughout, the home reflects careful ownership and a layout that balances elegance, functionality, and warmth. Ridgeleigh is known for its scenic common areas, walking paths, and strong neighborhood character, as well as its annual community events, including a Halloween Party and Parade, Summer Barbecue, and Ice-Cream Social. This is an exceptional and rare opportunity to own a beautifully appointed home in one of Potomac’s most appealing communities—offering privacy, convenience, and enduring value in a truly special setting.
