Available February 1, 2026 - Forest Privacy, Village Convenience A Rare Tara Road Offering.
Set on an extraordinary 2.8-acre wooded sanctuary, this newly renovated 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath rambler offers a level of privacy, scale, and natural beauty that is increasingly rare in Potomac. Surrounded on three sides by forest and featuring a massive, level backyard with a meandering stream, this property delivers a secluded, resort-like setting.
The home has been completely refreshed and turnkey, with new floors, fresh paint throughout, updated lighting, a brand-new kitchen, and a fully renovated primary bathroom. Electric car charger included. Professional photography is coming soon to showcase the exceptional setting and upgrades.
Inside, every room is generously proportioned, including all bedrooms. The renovated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a high-efficiency washer and dryer. A stunning wall of windows overlooking the woods creates an unparalleled work-from-home environment peaceful, private, and inspiring.
The finished lower level includes an in-law suite, offering flexibility for guests, extended family, or a private office retreat. Outdoors, a large multi-tier patio opens onto the expansive yard ideal for entertaining, play, or quiet evenings surrounded by nature.
Despite its tranquil setting, the home is just over one mile from Potomac Village and approximately 30 minutes to downtown Washington, D.C. via Canal Road, offering the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.
