A wonderful example of mid-century architecture, this exceptional home offers over 5,000 square feet of generous, flexible living space tucked away on a broad, sunny ¾-acre lot framed by mature azaleas and perennial gardens. A peaceful and remarkably quiet retreat, it feels almost like living in the country, yet sits just 2 miles from both 495 and local shopping at Potomac Village, with convenient the bus service to downtown Bethesda and Bethesda Metro. On the main level, walls of windows bring in abundant natural light and showcase the timeless character that makes mid-century homes so appealing. The retro charm also includes three fireplaces, a paneled den (great guest space?) and family room and beautifully preserved original tiled bathrooms that mid-century design purists will adore (a true find for those who don't want to update bathrooms). Custom natural cherry cabinets and shelves and top-of-the-line appliances make gourmet cooking a breeze in the chef’s kitchen equipped with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher and chef-worthy, professional-grade BlueStar gas range (along with a second Bosch oven), all flowing seamlessly into a three-sided sunroom and outdoor veranda overlooking the expansive yard -- enjoy morning coffee, afternoon cocktails and evening barbecues in this wonderful space. Complete with a versatile walk-out lower level featuring a family room, fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and kitchenette, as well as an elevator making this home perfect for intergenerational living. The oversized garage is a rare find offering plenty of space for sports equipment or garden tools and the ample storage and extra rooms throughout the lower level will make hobbyists and crafters happy -- or, finish and modernize the space to add guest areas, a home office, or home gym. Major recent updates include the roof 2023, water heater 2024 and furnace 2021. The highly desirable location in the top-rated Churchill school district make this property an extraordinary offering.

Open House Saturday August 15 From 2:00-4:00. Set on a picturesque .75-acre lot in the heart of Potomac, this exceptional Mid-Century Modern home blends timeless architecture with warmth, character, and thoughtful updates throughout. Spanning just under 4,000 square feet across two levels, the home is filled with natural light and offers an inviting, airy feel from the moment you step inside. A stunning new kitchen completed in 2025 anchors the main level, while the breathtaking sunroom and expansive rear deck create the perfect spaces to relax, entertain, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The dramatic family room showcases soaring vaulted ceilings and striking architectural lines that capture the essence of Mid-Century design. The thoughtful layout offers the ease of everyday living on the main level, where you'll find the spacious primary suite with an ensuite bath, two additional bedrooms, a beautifully renovated hall bathroom, and the home's principal living spaces. The walkout lower level offers exceptional flexibility, with a large recreation room featuring a fireplace, a fourth bedroom, an additional full bathroom, and ample space for guests, work-from-home needs, hobbies, or multi-generational living. Just as special as the home is its setting. Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined dead-end street, Farnsworth Drive is one of Potomac's hidden gems. Designed with gently curving roads and mature landscaping, the neighborhood offers a peaceful, park-like atmosphere where homes feel thoughtfully nestled into their natural surroundings. With only 17 homes, the community is known for its welcoming neighbors, neighborhood gatherings, and genuine sense of connection that is increasingly hard to find. Despite its tranquil setting, the location is exceptionally convenient, just minutes from I-495 and I-270, near the Bethesda and Washington, DC borders, and within easy reach of shopping, dining, parks, and top-rated schools. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive Mid-Century Modern home in one of Potomac's most unique and desirable enclaves.
