Welcome to this stately brick colonial, set on the largest and most secluded lot in Dufief Mill Estates; over half an acre of lush, landscaped grounds in the heart of North Potomac. From the moment you pull up the long, almost-hidden driveway (with space for 8–10 cars) to the flagstone walkway and classic brick façade, this home makes a grand first impression. Inside, timeless architecture meets modern luxury. The dramatic two-story foyer opens to formal living and dining rooms, a sunroom, and a main-level office. Rich hardwood floors, custom millwork, and abundant natural light set the tone. The formal dining room connects seamlessly to a butler’s pantry and the gourmet chef’s kitchen, complete with an oversized island, Viking gas range, premium stainless-steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and an adjoining breakfast area. From here, glass doors invite you out to the expansive deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow for both daily living and entertaining. A thoughtfully designed laundry room, with extra storage and a convenient pet door, complete the main level. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a private sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, two custom walk-in closets that feel more like boutiques, and a spa-inspired bath featuring heated floors, dual vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower, and a private water closet. Three additional bedrooms offer exceptional space, including a whimsical, custom-built “princess room” with built-ins and a dedicated vanity, plus two additional full baths. The walk-out lower level is equally impressive, offering a versatile recreation area, a home gym, a built-in bar, full bathroom, and a massive storage room that could make any Costco enthusiast swoon. Step outside to your backyard oasis, an expansive deck stretching the length of the home, a covered gazebo, and a landscaped, fully fenced, tree-lined lawn with an underground sprinkler system. Whether you envision elegant entertaining or relaxed weekends that feel like a Jimmy Buffett song, this outdoor space delivers. With its unmatched lot, thoughtful upgrades, and move-in-ready condition, this residence offers a rare combination of privacy, luxury, and convenience in one of the area’s most sought-after communities.
