A Rare Brookmont Retreat Steps from the Potomac! Tucked into the coveted Brookmont neighborhood, this beautifully maintained brick home offers an exceptional combination of privacy, natural beauty, and close-in convenience-just moments from the C&O Canal and Potomac River, one mile from DC, and minutes from downtown Bethesda. Set on a sun-filled corner lot behind a classic white picket fence, the home has been thoughtfully cared for by the same family for more than 30 years. Two well-integrated additions expanded the original 1950 residence, while a renovated kitchen, updated baths, solar energy, and a whole-house generator provide the comforts of modern living. Outside, mature gardens designed by a master gardener create a lush and enchanting setting. The property is also certified as a National Wildlife Federation Wildlife Habitat, reflecting the care and intention woven throughout the landscape. With miles of scenic hiking and biking trails, the C&O Canal, and the Potomac River just outside the neighborhood, Brookmont offers a setting that feels remarkably removed from the city while remaining exceptionally connected to both Washington and Bethesda. A gracious home, a distinctive setting, and one of the region's most cherished close-in communities.
