With 5 homes sold in 2025 at a $1.75M median, Stoney Creek Estates is a community of estate homes dating to 1987 along Stoney Creek Road in the Travilah area of Potomac. Streets include Bissel Lane, Bacall Lane, and Hill Creek Lane, branching off the main road. The oldest property in the area is a 1928 farmhouse on Stoney Creek Road — a reminder of the agricultural roots that preceded the subdivision. Most homes use private well water and septic systems, and HOA fees vary by section, ranging from roughly $125 to $500 per year.
Stoney Creek Farm, developed beginning in 1996, is a smaller enclave of newer homes accessed via Hunt Ridge off Stoney Creek Road. These homes were built on larger lots with contemporary floor plans, and the section carries its own HOA at approximately $900 per year. Together, the two communities share the Stoney Creek Road corridor and a similar semi-rural character defined by wooded lots, privacy, and proximity to parkland. A Realtor familiar with these communities can help buyers understand the differences between sections, well water systems, and varying HOA structures.
One distinguishing feature of the Stoney Creek communities is that they straddle MCPS school boundaries. Some homes are zoned for Potomac Elementary School, Herbert Hoover Middle School, and Winston Churchill High School, while others fall in the Travilah Elementary School, Robert Frost Middle School, and Thomas S. Wootton High School cluster. School assignments depend on the specific address, making it important for families to verify boundaries before purchasing. For buyers exploring the Travilah corridor, a real estate agent who knows these streets can help identify opportunities and navigate the complexities of split school zones.
