It's true that this is not far from Potomac. But for closer in Potomac, you're not going to find two acres. You have to go out pretty far in Potomac (probably close to Gaithersburg or Poolesville), and in that case, the commute would be terrible. Your point that these houses are overpriced in valid, but not sure a comparison to far-out Potomac really works.
This is right. Close in Potomac prices have really shot up recently too.
This one, close in sold $1,750,000 million in Potomac on Two Acres very close to Bethesda border
Only in DC 1987 is an old house

It was built in 1987 and needs at least $200,000 in updates. The kitchen and bathrooms are really dated.

The website has "Inspired Living In the New Heart of Bethesda"
This is the old radio tower site, right? No way that will ever become the new heart of Bethesda. It's almost Potomac, and besides, it's not near anything at all! No one's going to walk 5 miles to the Bethesda Row restaurants pictured on their website.

Easy walk to Montgomery Mall which will eventually be developed into a pedestrian friendly commercial area.
it is on other side of highway from mall. Walkable but not a nice walk.

Anyone know/hear/guess what the monthly HOA will be? Looks like you get your own pool/clubhouse and all lawn care.

I know people hate development in their backyards, but 300 homes won't appreciably impact traffic. Think about every time you pass by an apartment building with 300 units; do you see an endless stream of cars coming and going at all hours? No, of course not.

Toll Brothers isn’t the only option. Tri Pointe is also building in the neighborhood.

Their web page opens with a shot of "Bethesda Lane."
Lots of real estate listings pull crap like this. I hope no buyers are foolish enough to think that downtown Bethesda is close to this. It would have been more accurate to take a photo of Montgomery Mall.
Should open with a picture of the beltway.
And backed up.traffic on Fernwood.
