Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from April 19, 2024
Comprised of two expansive and lush parcels totaling 13.23 acres, 12815 - 12801 River Road is a breathtaking country estate reminiscent of New York’s Adirondacks or the summer residences of The Hamptons. Aptly named as Red Fox Hill, this sprawling manor offers luxury living in a tranquil yet conveniently accessible setting. Solace and serenity abound the manicured grounds, mature trees and rolling hills that encompass the estate, making the property a beautiful respite just outside our nation’s capital. Boasting approximately 10,950 total square feet across 4 levels, the Primary Residence and Carriage Home showcase a combined 6 Bedrooms and 5.5 Bathrooms. Delightful design notes extend throughout the primary residence’s interiors to include gleaming hardwood flooring, magnificent millwork, stunningly coffered and vaulted ceilings, beautiful built-ins, and walls of windows that flood the principal living spaces with natural light. Modern fixtures and amenities elegantly complement the home’s traditional yet timeless architectural accents to offer ease and comfort to today’s style of living. Although traditionally appointed, the Main Level floor plan provides a seamless flow between formal entertaining spaces and the more relaxed living spaces. The principal living spaces are located on the Main Level and include the formal Dining and Living Rooms flanking the entry foyer, a more informal Gallery and Study, an exquisite Sunroom, and the sprawling Family Room that opens to both the enviable Screened Porch and the rear Terrace. The expansive Gourmet Kitchen is fit for any caliber chef with a large Island, high-end stainless steel appliances, ample storage space, and a wall of windows overlooking the enviable Terrace and lush grounds beyond. A Breakfast Nook with banquette sits adjacent to the Gourmet Kitchen, providing a more informal dining alternative. Adjacent to the Chef’s Kitchen, French doors open to the rear dining Terrace for idyllic al fresco dining and entertaining overlooking the property’s lush grounds. The Mudroom provides ample storage space and offers breezeway access to the Oversized 5-Car “Car Barn” and Carriage House’s guest quarters that are complete with a fully equipped Kitchen, full Bathroom, and additional storage. The Carriage Home offers incredible views of the property’s enviable 40’ Swimming Pool and Patio, the perfect respite to relax and enjoy the enchanting landscape that surrounds. An en-suite Bedroom completes the Main Level’s offerings. The Upper Level showcases 3 of the guest Bedrooms, each offering ample closet space, a hall Bathroom, and the extraordinary Primary Suite. Boasting vaulted ceilings, abundant built-ins, a cozy fireplace, gleaming hardwoods, and bountiful property views, the Primary Bedroom Suite is complete with an expansive walk-in closet and spa-like Bathroom with dual vanities, clawfoot tub, and stall shower. This Suite is truly the ultimate oasis within the residence. The multifunctional Lower Level features a Recreation Room, a large Laundry Room with built-ins, and a Full Bathroom. Additional storage space is available on the Top Level. From magnificently appointed and stunningly curated interiors to the jaw-dropping outdoor entertaining spaces and impeccably maintained grounds offering lush gardens and greenery, this Colonial country estate is a one-of-a-kind opportunity that is not to be missed.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe kids at this school are quite racist and homophobic, however, that is changing. As for daily life, bullying is normal and homework is abundant. Most children (including me) here don't want to learn. Some teachers try to make learning engaging, but most just try to shove knowledge into our brains. This schools says it is in support of mental health, and it does sometimes do a good job, but the amount of homework it gives says otherwise.Parent Review11mo ago - Potomac Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m surprised to see some of the reviews here. We have had two kids at PES and love everything about the school and the community. The principal has shown herself to be very capable, accessible and innovative. And the staff have all been extremely student-focused. They are creative, caring and competent. Our kids have thrived at PES, enjoying everything from the new building to Chinese immersion to orchestra to the book fair and more. The focus also on mindfulness and kindness has been fantastic!Other Review2y ago - Winston Churchill High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageChurchill high school is the best public high school in Maryland. It provides its students with extensive resources. The teachers are extremely intelligent, experienced and truly care that their students learn the subjects they teach. The teachers and administration is very responsive and caring. The students get along with each other and for the most part are kind and focused on learning and doing well in school. A large number of AP classes are offered in almost every subject. My daughter did extremely well, got into a top ten university and is attending that university. Churchill prepared her very well for the challenges and rigors of the top university and she is doing very well there. With Churchill you get a world class education that will prepare your child to get into and do well in a top university and beyond (without having to pay a couple of hundred thousand dollars for a private school education)!!Parent Review1y ago - Check out schools near 12815 River Rd.
