Five Bedrooms. Established Community. Accessible Entry into the DC Metro Market.

7710 Penley Lane is a detached single-family home in Fort Washington, Maryland, a community situated along the Potomac River in Prince George’s County. The home was built in 1963 and offers 1,974 square feet of interior space across five bedrooms and two full baths.

Fort Washington occupies a distinct position in the DC metro area — a suburban community with direct access to the capital via the Indian Head Highway and I-495 corridors. The neighborhood’s established character and tree-lined residential streets reflect decades of stable development.

At $395,000, this home offers a compelling entry point for detached single-family ownership within commuting distance of Washington, DC. Five bedrooms provide meaningful flexibility in how the space is used and configured over time.

A Wardman team member represented the buyer in this transaction, bringing market knowledge of Prince George’s County and the broader DC metro submarket to the acquisition process.

The Property
7710 Penley Lane is a five-bedroom, two-bath detached home in Fort Washington, Maryland. Built in 1963, the home spans 1,974 square feet of interior space. The mid-century construction era is well represented throughout Prince George’s County, and homes of this vintage often feature generous room proportions and solid structural bones.
The Location
Fort Washington is a Prince George’s County community positioned along the Potomac River, south of the Capital Beltway. The area provides access to Washington, DC via major road corridors and is proximate to National Harbor, the Woodrow Wilson Bridge, and the broader Southern Maryland submarket. Local parks, waterfront areas, and everyday retail are accessible throughout the community.
The Opportunity
At $395,000, this five-bedroom home offers a meaningful price-per-square-foot proposition relative to comparable detached inventory in the DC metro area. Five bedrooms in a detached structure at this price point is a relatively uncommon combination within the region, making the home a considered acquisition for the buyer.
The Representation
A Wardman team member guided the buyer through this transaction, applying knowledge of Prince George’s County’s single-family market and the competitive dynamics of the DC metro area. The team’s buyer representation work in Southern Maryland and the broader Capital region informs every step of the acquisition process.
