Mind Your Manors: Potomac

Although today’s featured estate is not the most expensive in Potomac (ZIP: 20854), I found myself completely drawn in by the landscaping and wanted to share. I was also a little amused to see the wooden playset in the back, because this is not the type of house you normally envision children in. Wouldn’t little kids just get completely lost in a place like this? My house is a mere fraction of this size, but my kids still manage to completely disappear right before bath time. 

Moving right along…9912 Bentcross Drive is a French Provincial located in the subdivision of Falconhurst and is priced at $5,995,000. It has 5 bedrooms, 7 baths, and sits on 2.15 acres with a gated entry. On those 2.15 acres, you will find a pool, tennis courts, waterfalls, and lush landscaping (and, of course, the playset). Inside, there is a gourmet kitchen, a 2-story foyer, grand salon and custom-milled library. The finished lower level includes a full bar, rec room, game room, theater, cabana, and a guest suite. The estate has been on Redfin for 32 days with no price reductions. 

As I mentioned last week, Potomac came in at number 7 on CNNMoney.com’s 25 Top-Earning Towns. You can find more information about Potomac here.
