About 11510 Springridge Rd
Welcome To 11510 Springridge Road, an extraordinary property offering unobstructed, year-round views of the Potomac River—an exceptional find in the Washington, DC area. This nature lover’s paradise is set on over three acres, adjacent on two sides to the bucolic C&O Canal National Historic Park, with 270-degree river frontage and creek access from which you can float your kayak under the canal and out to the Potomac. This remarkable setting provides a rare opportunity for breathtaking panoramas and a natural sanctuary complete with nesting bald eagles and blue herons for neighbors.
The four-bedroom residence is gracefully perched atop a gentle knoll, where a circular drive with a water feature inspired by the river frames a broad lawn accented by stonework and mature plantings. From the front entry, the eye is immediately drawn to uninterrupted views of the river. Designed to capture its setting, all principal rooms face the Potomac through expansive floor to ceiling windows.
The main level showcases a gourmet kitchen adjoining a gathering room featuring a fireplace and that opens to an extensive outdoor living area including an expansive patio featuring an inground pool and two pergolas. A spacious dining room with built-in glass-front cabinetry and a dual-sided fireplace connects seamlessly to the formal living room, where walls of glass share the warmth of the same hearth. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with double wall ovens, two dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, a Gaggenau cooktop with built-in grill, two skylights, extensive cabinets and multiple pantries, and granite counters. This level also offers an en-suite bedroom, a handicap-accessible full bath, an additional bedroom with hall bath, and a mudroom/laundry with exterior entry and garage access.
The upper level hosts two en-suite bedrooms, including the palatial primary suite. This remarkable retreat features a sitting room, a fireplace framed by custom built-ins, and an octagonal turret. It also offers two voluminous walk-in closets, an additional deep closet, recessed lighting, and both front and rear balconies. The spa-like primary bath includes a glass-enclosed shower, soaking tub, oversized vanity, and skylight, with a convenient storage room just beyond. Both bedrooms enjoy the rare luxury of waking up each morning to glorious water views, often accompanied by majestic eagle sightings.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with sweeping terraces and patios extending across the home—each capturing captivating views. The pool area is complemented by a completely outfitted outdoor kitchen with Viking appliances, a stone fireplace, and two covered pergolas. A hot tub is perfectly perched at the edge of the hill, offering incredible vistas and star gazing galore. Meandering footpaths weave through the lush grounds, leading to secluded perches alive with flowers, birds, and butterflies.
Practical features include a new roof, two propane systems, owner-owned solar panels, a new shed, a potting area, a comprehensive irrigation system, a garage, and a carport.
Whether enjoying the views from inside or out, let nature nourish your soul while still being less than ten minutes from Potomac Village’s shops and restaurants, with direct access to River Road and easy reach of Washington, DC’s vibrancy. Just steps from the Potomac River and near Blockhouse Point Conservation Park and trails, this property blends rare natural beauty with unmatched convenience.
