Description

Built circa 1780, this exceptional, plaqued 4 bedroom, 2 ½ bathroom home is nestled in the coveted historic district of Old Town Alexandria and maintains much of the character of a historic home while combining features and amenities that are well-suited to today’s lifestyle. This residence—located just three doors down from George Washington’s townhome and just one block from King Street’s dining and shopping district—features stunning original heart pine hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, numerous built-ins, four fireplaces, and two outdoor areas, including a brick-lined fenced patio off of the kitchen which backs to Washington Way Park as well as a roof deck with sweeping views of neighboring rooftops and breathtaking sunsets.

The first floor features a spacious living room with a fireplace, built-in shelving, and a hidden cabinet just perfect for a “cocktail nook.” The dining room is generously sized to host dinner parties and also features built-in storage, display space and a fireplace. A powder room is discretely located under the historic staircase, and the updated kitchen features exposed brick, stainless steel appliances, a gas Wolf range, soapstone countertops, and a concealed washer and dryer. Adjacent French doors lead to the back garden/patio.

Heading upstairs to the second floor, you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom large enough to accommodate a king size bed and a decorative fireplace. A second bedroom with built-ins can double as a study, dressing room, or home office, with one of the two full bathrooms located off of this space. Also on this level is a recently renovated expansive second full bathroom with a large soaking tub, Carrara marble tile, and a Toto commode.

Up the staircase to the third floor of the home you’ll pass a gorgeous stained glass window on your way to the home’s two additional charming bedrooms as well as the roof deck.

An unfinished lower level affords a vast amount of space to accommodate your storage needs.

The home’s central Old Town location is a commuter’s dream: less than one mile to King Street Metro, and easy access to I-95/495, Route 1, and the GW Parkway. Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe's, Balducci’s, coffee shops, bike and walking trails, the riverfront, and farmers’ markets are also conveniently located nearby.
