A timeless center hall colonial with enduring charm and beautifully scaled spaces, offering the rare opportunity to bring your own vision to a home with exceptional bones located in coveted McAuley Park, just minutes from everything. This stately red brick colonial is gracefully sited on a gentle knoll with a commanding street presence. From the welcoming center hall to the sunroom bathed in natural light, every space feels generous and full of possibility. The main level is comprised of a formal Living Room with a wood burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows, a formal Dining Room for holiday parties, a private main level study with a wall of built-ins, a big Kitchen/breakfast area adjacent to the large, beamed Family Room with a wet bar and separate entrance. The Family Room also steps down to the Sunroom with three walls of glass. Upstairs is a huge Primary Suite with a very large walk-in closet, second closet and a Primary Bathroom.

McAuley Park is one of those quietly desirable pockets ideally located just off River Road, minutes to Potomac Village while also close to I270/I495, the Beltway. Homes here have presence, and the setting feels settled and intentional, not transient. McAuley Park offers both privacy AND proximity. Local clubs like Congressional Country Club and Bethesda Country Club are just a few minutes away as well as local shopping, banking, and dining. It's convenient to the top rated public schools as well as many highly regarded private schools. Mc Auley Park is known for it's cohesive community, a great Halloween celebration and more!
