Potomac sucks. No one who has any sense lives there.

Kalorama and Woodland-Normanstone.

Everything else, while nice, takes a back seat to the actual mansions in these wooded neighborhoods.


Nope. Parts of Spring Valley beat out Woodland Drive by a mile.


Spring Valley is also a cancer cluster (and no close metro station). Woodland Normanstone hands down.


Woodland Drive / Normanstone won’t recover from the “Mansion Murders” anytime soon. That empty lot that no one will buy says it all.


Wrong. Someone bought the house for $3M, then razed it. They plan to build on the empty lot.
But let that sink in. Someone paid $3M for a house where 4 people were murdered. That’s the definition of a sought after neighborhood, where even a tragedy of that magnitude doesn’t dissuade buyers.

Kalorama is a transient neighborhood. Too few owners are present. And the Obamas only live there because of the proximity to the Naval Observatory. (Same with Clinton’s.) Normanstone and Wesley Heights/Foxhall are the best DC enclaves for old school and long standing DC families.

Spring Valley is lucky there is no Metro station. If there were one there, Bowser’s planning department would be trying to get rid of single family zoning and build dense and tall there.
