Everyone says it, but this one truly is the one you have to see to believe… Tucked away just off the designated rustic Glen Mill Road lies a rare opportunity: 3.72 acres of serene, creekside retreat — your very own private nature preserve. From the road, the land may appear unassuming. But step into the trees, and its magic reveals itself. Neighbors fade from view, and you're immersed in complete seclusion. This is a place where peace lives in the rustling leaves, and nature thrives all around — wild turkeys, deer, foxes, and many more sharing your woodland haven. Design and build your dream estate-style home — with room to add an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) — on a spacious homesite nestled above the gently winding banks of Piney Branch. A private lane welcomes you in, guiding you to this wooded sanctuary where life slows down and quiet moments abound. And while it feels a world away, you're only minutes from I-270, Potomac Village, shopping, garden centers, beautiful parks, and the world-renowned Glenstone Museum. Whether you're relaxing at home or exploring the area, the best of both worlds is right at your doorstep. This is more than a property. It’s a blank canvas — a chance to create your own paradise and experience a lifestyle few ever find.
