Unleash Your Vision in North Portal Estates. This is your opportunity to reimagine and restore a substantial mid-century modern residence, ideally positioned at the entrance of the highly sought-after North Portal Estates—an established enclave of over 200 homes nestled within the larger Colonial Village community. Offering a truly rare combination of scale, location, and lot size, this property invites endless possibilities for customization and creativity. Set on a generous quarter-acre lot, this home offers over 5,000 square feet of living space across two main levels—each approximately 2,000 square feet—plus a spacious 1,200-square-foot wing that can be seamlessly integrated into the main home or used separately. Whether envisioned as additional living quarters, a dedicated home office, or a rental unit, the possibilities are truly endless. From multi-generational living to income-producing potential or a private work-from-home retreat, this flexible layout provides the space to bring your vision to life. The home has been fully gutted, presenting a clean slate for your architect and contractor to craft a design that reflects your personal style and functional needs. The existing configuration includes six bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms, along with formal living and dining areas, a sunroom, and a two-car garage. However, the flexible layout makes it easy to reimagine and reconfigure the interior to suit your lifestyle, whether you lean toward open-concept living, want to enhance the connection to outdoor spaces, or plan to create distinct zones for entertaining and relaxation. North Portal Estates is known for its quiet, tree-lined streets, strong sense of community, and proximity to Rock Creek Park, downtown Silver Spring, and easy access to major commuter routes. Opportunities like this—where size, location, and potential converge—are rare.
