Description

Welcome to 8710 Belmart Road
One of 262 homes on a rolling 800 acres, Potomac Falls certainly maintains the bucolic horse farm feel that it was when WC & AN miller purchased the land in 1960 and developed it over the next decade and a half. Waxing poetic about the location seems redundant so I will just recap – abuts to parkland, about 2 miles to Potomac Village - Giant, Safeway, Strosnider, Starbucks, several restaurants, Wells and more. Falls road to either River Rd or MacArthur Blvd accesses to…everything.***...Welcome to 8710 Belmart Road

One of 262 homes on a rolling 800 acres, Potomac Falls certainly maintains the bucolic horse farm feel that it was when WC & AN miller purchased the land in 1960 and developed it over the next decade and a half. Waxing poetic about the location seems redundant so I will just recap – abuts to parkland, about 2 miles to Potomac Village - Giant, Safeway, Strosnider, Starbucks, several restaurants, Wells and more. Falls road to either River Rd or MacArthur Blvd accesses to…everything.***

8710 Belmart Rd was first purchased on spec by astronaut and Senator John Glenn in 1974, raising his family there until 1991 when he moved to Avenel. The current owner has lived here since. With all homes on no less than 2 acres this lot deserves special mention: at the end of a long winding no-thru block just short of the cul-de-sac, the setback is perfect, the rear of the property has just the right amount of slope – all usable. And you’re on the side of the neighborhood that abuts Great Falls National Park – depending on weather conditions you can hear the Falls!***
Deceptively large, the home offers a spacious 1st floor primary suite, nice den/study, formal living and dining rooms. The kitchen/family that can only be described as sprawling, with five panels of sliding doors overlooking the pastoral back yard. The upper level offers 3 large bedrooms, surprise proportions that belie the roofline. Two of the bedrooms served by a Jack & Jill bath and one with a bath ensuite. A lower level with laundry and utilities is unfinished but with 9 ft ceiling certainly has potential for more use. The entire home has been meticulously repainted and the original hardwood floors have an artisanal refinish – a perfect blank canvas.***
The home is indeed in excellent original condition and opportunities are endless. Perfectly livable as-is to figure out a plan, update as you go, do everything at once, add on or, as sweet as it is, take it down and start over. (sad-face.) You simply cannot over-improve at this price in this neighborhood - your forever home awaits, for sure.***

John Glenn wrote the current owner in 1991, “We hope that you love the home as much as we did.” Whatever you plan for the property, this seller wishes you the same.***

Offers, if any, due Tuesday at noon.
