Welcome to this beautifully updated colonial in the sought-after Fox Hills of Potomac. Just under 3500 finished square feet, this home is ready for you to move in and enjoy! Step into the bright and spacious open floor plan, perfect for modern living. The main and upper levels feature gorgeous wood floors, and the secondary bedrooms are impressively large, offering plenty of room to spread out. The family room and dining/living rooms, both with fireplaces, are ideal for gatherings or relaxing evenings at home. Sliding glass doors off the family room lead to a flagstone patio—perfect for grilling and hanging out with friends. Plus, the mudroom off the 2-car garage has a laundry and powder room, making life a bit easier. The renovated kitchen is the star of the show with high-end appliances, a downdraft induction cooktop, double wall ovens, and stunning quartz countertops. It’s as beautiful as it is functional. The ceramic plank flooring adds a modern touch, and there’s even a greenhouse window above the sink for the perfect touch. It’s an entertainer’s dream with a breakfast bar that flows right into a cozy sitting area. Whether you're cooking up a storm or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space has it all. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with a walk-in closet and an updated spa-like bathroom with double sinks, a luxurious walk-in shower (with a bench and frameless glass doors), and beautiful modern finishes. The spacious second and third bedrooms both include two closets. The fourth bedroom has double windows and faces the front of the house. The hall bath has been beautifully renovated to make mornings a breeze. The basement is a real bonus – fresh carpet, new paint, and a huge open space with built-in bookshelves. There’s also a wet bar, full bathroom, and PLENTY of storage! Plus, the hot water heater is just a couple of years old (2022), and the HVAC was replaced in 2017. Step outside, and you’ll fall in love with the well-landscaped, fenced-in backyard. It’s a true oasis, featuring beautiful holly trees, oak trees, multiple azaleas that bloom at different times, a stunning camellia bush, and rhododendrons that make the yard come alive in spring! Whether you want to relax, garden, or entertain, this space is ready for it all. The location is unbeatable—just under a mile to the elementary and middle schools, with Churchill High School a little further down the road. You’re also within a 12-minute drive to two metro stations: Grosvenor and White Flint. You'll love the convenience of Cabin John Village, packed with dining, shopping, and grocery options. If you’re looking to stay active in the summer, residents have the option to join the Tallyho Pool right across the street on Bells Mill Road. The pool has a very active swim team, a tennis court, and even more outdoor fun with a public tennis court, basketball, and playground nearby. Plus, Cabin John Regional Park is right around the corner, with trails, dog parks, tennis courts, ball fields, ice skating, and so much more! This home is a perfect blend of style, comfort, and location- just what you have been looking for!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
