About Potomac View Estates

With 4 homes sold in 2025 at a $2.18M median, Potomac View Estates is an established community of large homes on wooded lots in Potomac, Maryland. Built primarily between 1981 and 1986, the neighborhood is anchored by Potomac View Drive and Riverwood Drive, with additional homes along Piney Meetinghouse Road, Piney Meetinghouse Court, and Tara Road — a street name that gives the area its colloquial nickname, "Tara." One property in the neighborhood even includes a horse barn, reflecting the area's spacious and rural character. There is no mandatory homeowner association.

Potomac View Estates sits minutes from Potomac Village, where residents can walk to shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences along Falls Road. The neighborhood's proximity to the C&O Canal towpath, Swain's Lock, and Great Falls National Park makes it well-suited for outdoor recreation. Greenbriar Local Park, a 25-acre Montgomery Parks property with playgrounds, a soccer field, basketball court, and a paved loop trail, is also nearby. A Realtor familiar with this part of Potomac can help buyers understand the range of home styles and settings found here.

The neighborhood is zoned for Potomac Elementary School, Herbert Hoover Middle School, and Winston Churchill High School. Piney Meetinghouse Road connects to River Road and Falls Road, providing convenient access to I-495 and I-270 for commuting. For buyers seeking a Potomac address with generous lots and proximity to natural areas, working with a real estate agent who knows Potomac View Estates can help identify the right opportunity.
