Avenel, once known as a thousand acre farm and center for local horse trainers and riders, is now home to 900 luxury homes and the Avenel Farm, PGA Golf Course in Potomac, Maryland. Honored with the prestigious Urban Land Institute's “Award for Excellence” for best planned community in the nation, Avenel prides itself on maintaining the strict architectural guidelines as set forth by Natelli Communities nearly two decades ago.

The community, interlaced with stream valleys and parkland that were preserved in the community design, is graced with miles of fencing that provides a scenic backdrop to rolling hills, extensive landscape, stone piers, a winding network of bike paths and jogging trails, and interconnecting bridle paths. The existing barn and horse grazing fields located at the center of the community have been preserved. The main barn, dating from the 1940's and reportedly the largest single-story barn in Maryland, is the centerpiece of an active horse riding community that continues to thrive at this location.
