It backs to the park. The Copenhaver park is amazing. The playground that you can see but also the lake, walking trails, and ball fields. I know there is a baseball diamond and an expansive green space where I’ve seen many kids playing soccer.
Kids can walk to Cold Spring which has been underenrolled for a long time and also has a CES program or whatever the elem school magnets are now called. If you have kids this is an amazing location. |

Purchased for 69k in 1969? Now worth at least 1.2m? (1.5m is overpriced)
Where was I in 1969? |
In 1969 the DMV was a pretty sleepy place, nothing like what it is today in terms of home values. Not even close. |
| Maybe if it was zoned for Churchill, the price would be justified. However, seeing as it is zoned for Wootton, it is not. |
| This home is massive. I would not take any walls down. I think the photos are deceiving of the layout. Yes, upgrades are needed but it is very reasonably priced. Will go for 1.8 or more. |

The real issue it is Wooten not Churchill
|
Right. Because you're kid going to Wooton instead of Churchill is going to keep them out of the Ivy you were hoping they'd get into. What a dumb thing to say or even think. Wooton is a great school! |

I was house hunting in Potomac in 2017 pretty hard. Wooten zoned schools were $150k to 200k cheaper. Not saying Wooten is bad just homes sell for less. Wooten is 60 percent minority and 7 percent of school poor enough a free lunch. Winston Churchill is 55 percent minority and 5 percent free lunch Walt Whitman is 34 percent minority and hardly any broke kids The Ws are not all equal |
This is why realtors should never list houses without a floorplan. You can't tell by looking at a collection of photos. |
| Having a massive sloped backyard like this is a turnoff. You have a huge lawn to maintain but nobody gets to use it. |
Ha, I am the OP and that's about what my parents paid, also in 1969. They still live there. |
Your parents are in to 69, cool |
Wow, I just can't stop laughing at your comedic skills. |
