Welcome to Potomac, MDAs its name suggests, the affluent community of Potomac is located on the banks of the Potomac River in Montgomery County, just 15 miles northwest of the nation’s capital. The area’s natural beauty, which ranges from rolling hills and horse pastures to wooded lots and waterfront views, is only enhanced by the town’s proximity to the immensely popular 800-acre Great Falls National Park. Needless to say, this makes Potomac real estate some of the area’s most desirable – and most valuable.
A number of the nation’s wealthiest neighborhoods call Potomac home, including Bradley Farms, Palantine, Falconhurst, and Avenel, which plays host to the Kemper Open golf tournament each June. Amenities are provided by the community’s commercial district, Potomac Village, which features upscale retail and dining establishments. Million dollar homes are par for the course here, making Potomac real estate particularly appealing to prosperous retirees, water lovers, and golf and equestrian enthusiasts, among others. But business professional and commuters, who appreciate the proximity of Potomac real estate to Washington D.C., as well as families with school-age children looking for a broad selection of excellent public and private schools, are also known to relocate to this picturesque suburb. | More Local Area InformationMontgomery County is 494.6 square miles with a population of over 920,000 people.
