This property is a unique blend of move-in ready now with build-out potential on the existing parcel footprint later; the HOA is informal and comprised of a close-knit cul-de-sac community. The backyard arboretum has been lovingly cultivated over 35 years and offers a peaceful private retreat with a variety of mature hardwoods and pines. The forest behind the home is deeded to the Maryland Nature Conservancy and is permanently preserved as greenspace. In addition, the property benefits from an informal easement that provides additional usable yard space beyond the rear property line, a rare feature among Angus Place neighbors. This is a three bedroom home with two bedrooms on the main level and a primary suite in the loft above. The current owner recently combined the two main level bedrooms into a spacious office suite, which can easily be converted back to two separate bedrooms. The open loft can also be enclosed to create a fourth bedroom if desired. Recent improvements include: * Three level exterior built elevator with wood paneling installed in 2018 * Floating wood burning fireplace with masonry hearth and log storage completed in 2024 * Spa bathroom with jacuzzi tub and rainforest shower added in 2019 * New masonry steps and front stoop completed in 2021 * Basement apartment with bathroom, tiled shower, kitchenette, and separate entrance added in 2021 * Ceiling recessed lights, chandelier, and pendant lighting updated throughout in 2024 * Laminate decking installed in 2015 * Skylights in the bedroom added in 2018 * Third floor washer and dryer installed in 2018 * Architectural tile roof completed in 2010 * Double paned sliding windows installed in 2005 * Outdoor gas grill added in 2010 * Gas furnace and air conditioning compressor replaced in 2008 This home offers architectural interest, functional upgrades, and a tranquil setting surrounded by protected nature. It is a rare offering in a sought after Potomac neighborhood.
