11610 KAREN DRIVE, Potomac, MD 20854

Reimagined mid-century design, sophisticated interiors, and extraordinary private grounds define 11610 Karen Drive. Thoughtfully redesigned and curated by its current owners, this distinctive Lake Normandy Estates residence offers 3, 768 finished square feet across two levels, with five bedrooms and four full bathrooms on a beautifully landscaped .62-acre lot. Extensive interior upgrades blend architectural character with contemporary refinement. Custom-cut 5-inch white oak hardwood flooring, high-end lighting, hardware, and finishes, recessed lighting, and a redesigned entryway and banister establish a cohesive aesthetic. Renovated kitchens and bathrooms enhance everyday living, while vaulted ceilings, skylights, and expansive triple-pane Andersen windows fill the home with natural light and frame garden views. The designer kitchen features Italian-imported wood cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, a large center island, built-in table space, and high-end stainless steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator. French doors open to a newly constructed travertine patio, seamlessly extending dining and entertaining outdoors. A wood-burning fireplace with a distinctive stepped surround and mantel anchors the living room. The adjoining sunroom/family room pairs cathedral ceilings with a wall of windows overlooking the heated pool and gardens. Travertine flooring and hardscaping throughout portions of the interior and exterior reinforce the connection between the home and its surroundings. The private bedroom wing includes four bedrooms and three renovated full bathrooms. The primary suite offers direct deck access through glass doors and a spacious walk-in closet with custom poplar wood organizers. Its spa-inspired bathroom features a soaking tub, dual vanity, and glass-enclosed shower. The finished lower level features rare olive wood flooring, a second fireplace, a fifth bedroom, and a fourth full bathroom, along with generous flexible space for a media room, gym, office, or guest suite. Direct access to the attached two-car garage and additional storage adds convenience. Drawing on a background in landscape architecture, the owner designed the grounds as a natural extension of the interiors. Layered gardens frame views, create privacy, and provide changing color and texture throughout the seasons. Roses, lavender, tulips, and redbud trees complement travertine and pea-gravel pathways, an elevated greenhouse, and an enclosed vegetable and herb garden with raised beds and travertine flooring. A new tool shed adds practical storage, while a multipurpose sport court accommodates badminton, volleyball, basketball, or outdoor entertaining. The private heated pool is surrounded by bluestone and French-pattern travertine decking, creating an inviting centerpiece for the outdoor spaces. The landscape was thoughtfully planned for deer resistance, naturally low maintenance, drainage, and water mitigation. A detailed Landscape Features and Planting List is included with the disclosures. Additional features include an architectural-shingle roof with DeckArmor installed in 2013, dual-zone HVAC, a new water heater installed in 2025, a newer pool filter, a new high-efficiency pool pump, a Level 2 EV charging outlet, a generator with transfer switch, a passive radon system, professionally designed water mitigation, discreetly positioned solar panels, and interior and exterior speakers ready to connect.
