$211,000 Above Ask On A Home Built Without Nails
Sitting on just under five acres, this Potomac home built using the "post and beam" method, which means no nails or screws were used, spent just a week on the market before receiving three offers, and selling recently for $211,000 above asking. The cathedral a-frame design in the home allows for soaring ceilings and tilted skylights throughout, and imported Peruvian and Mexican patterned tiles are found as accents throughout the home on the floors and walls. The open kitchen includes an herb garden in the corner and two doors that lead to the large patio. The upstairs living area has a large wood-burning fireplace with space for a formal dining room. The primary suite, also located on the top floor, includes ample closet space, multiple points of entry and a sliding barn door that leads to a bathroom with double vanity sinks and a glass waterfall shower.
