I naturally enjoy keeping up with real estate publications. The newest issue of "The Residential Specialist" discusses how upscale home buyers like to use their living rooms as parlors, libraries, or even music rooms. Younger buyers (in their 30s and 40s) prefer open floor plans with a kitchen, spacious eating area, and family room, all in one. With entertainment becoming more casual. With entertainment becoming more casual, buyers no longer demand the formal dining rooms of a prior generation..
This trend comes as no surprise to real-estate watchers or to an agent such as myself. A home I'm marketing (9301 Harrington Drive in Potomac, Maryland) features such an open floor plan. Built 16 years ago, the builder and architect were ahead of their time in providing a flexible and rearrangeable living space.

Bradley Farms, Potomac, Maryland
Bradley Farms is one of Potomac's oldest neighborhoods and certainly one of its visible and most exclusive. Bradley Farms consists of many large, 1940s era estates (many set back quite far from the street) which line River Road in its approach into Potomac Village from Bethesda; the neighborhood also extends behind River Road and is bounded by Persimmon Tree Road on the south and west. The Congressional Country Club forms the neighborhood's eastern boundary. Traditionally, some of the Washington area's most expensive home sales have occurred in Bradley Farms, which consists not only of the homes on River Road but also of the grand, older homes which line Durham Drive, Fox Meadow Lane, Bronson Drive and Congressional Parkway. Unlike Falconhurst, which lies just off of River Road to the west, the homes in Bradley Farms are strictly traditional and, while large, not typically ostentatious.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver and Sargent Shriver reside in Bradley Farms in a large compound on the north side of River Road, just west of Bradley Boulevard. The Shriver home, however, is well hidden from the road
