River, trail, and nature enthusiasts - imagine living a mere 2 minute walk from the banks of the Potomac River and C&O Canal National Historic Park! This is Brookmont, a hidden oasis and community just outside of DC with its own farmers market on Wednesdays and the Brookmont Church that hosts events like art shows and holiday markets. This block features a short trail that takes you right to the river and to the kayak/canoe slalom course with training gates on class I or II whitewater. 111 Valley Rd is uniquely situated on a double lot at the top of a hill which provides a view of the canal and lock house #6. The lots also feature tons of private outdoor space and gorgeous stonework with stairs, a patio, and driveway, beautiful landscaping that includes mature camellias, dogwood and other plants that flower nearly all year round. Inside the home is very bright and sunny and features many recent updates including a newer kitchen, new metal roof and insulation on top floor, new chimney flue, insulated windows on the upper floors, new stairs, ceiling fans, built in bookshelves, and a dual zone heating and cooling. Expansion of the home is an option and professional architectural plans are available.
