Welcome to this stunning contemporary-style home located in the highly sought-after Orchard Hills community in North Potomac. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be charmed by the beautifully landscaped front yard, featuring a lush green lawn, colorful flower beds, and a blossoming cherry tree. Inside, rich cherry wood floors run throughout the main level, setting a warm and elegant tone. The spacious kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring eye-catching two-tone cabinetry, granite countertops, classic white subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances—including a new microwave and dishwasher (2025) and a French-door refrigerator (2021). A sun-filled breakfast area with large arched windows fills the space with natural light, while stylish gold fixtures above the island and dining table add a modern, upscale feel. The vaulted ceiling enhances the openness and airiness of the kitchen space. Adjacent to the kitchen is a bright, open dining and living room with a glass slider that leads to a large deck, flanked by gardens on both sides —perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing. The cozy family room features a gas fireplace, access to a half bath (which can be converted to a full bath), a generously sized bedroom, a laundry closet, and a direct walkout to the backyard and deck. Hardwood stairs lead to upstairs with 4 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The brand-new carpet adds a fresh touch. The primary suite is truly impressive, offering a large sitting area, two closets (including a walk-in), and a luxurious en-suite bath with a dual-sink vanity, jetted soaking tub, and a custom frameless glass shower. The fully finished basement offers incredible flexibility with its own private entrance, a large rec room, a family area, a kitchenette, its own laundry, a guest bedroom, a full bath, and a dedicated storage/utility room. Outside, enjoy a level, fenced backyard with a large deck, a plants nursery room, gardening areas, a fruit-producing persimmon tree, and a storage shed. The attached 2-car garage includes a newer garage door (2017).
