Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Agent Ellie Shorb Listed Former Home of Legendary NBA Superstar in Potomac
Washington, D.C. (October 16, 2015) — Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Ellie Shorb, a top-producing independent agent at the Bethesda Downtown office, has listed one of the most expensive homes in the Potomac area in several years. She is offering a luxurious 18,500-square-foot luxury residence on a three-acre resort-style estate at 9712 Sorrel Avenue in Falconhurst for $5,300,000.
“This spectacular home is ideal for entertaining, and will make the new owners feel like they’re enjoying a year-round vacation at a luxurious resort,” said Shorb. “The home was originally built for a legendary NBA superstar, and the current owners have preserved his enormous shoe closet, practice basketball hoop and workout equipment.”
The gorgeous gated seven-bedroom, 12-bath, four-car garage property is highlighted by a new championship-quality lighted tennis court, 50-foot heated pool and spa, charming guest cottage, pool house, mature gardens and a home with unmatched quality, detail, warmth and character.
No architectural detail was overlooked in the construction of this magnificent stone Colonial-style residence, from the cathedral ceiling and curved staircase with nail head detail, to the balcony overlooking a two-story sunken great room with a warm fireplace and French doors leading to the lush park-like gardens, pool and twin patios.
The first floor master suite was designed for ultimate relaxation, and opens to the terrace, gardens and pool. The spacious bath features separate vanities, an inviting soaking tub and separate shower. Five bedrooms with walk-in closets, and two living rooms complete the second floor.
The basement is a dream space with a world-class home gym/weight room, art/craft room, playroom/TV area, bar/mini kitchen, huge cedar storage closet, guest sleeping quarters and two full baths.
Located on a private road, this home is conveniently situated near Potomac Village and the Bolger Center, and offers an easy commute to Washington, D.C. and Virginia.
