Where History Meets Happily Every After
Here is your chance to own a piece of Old Town history! Step into the charm and character of Old Town Alexandria with this exceptional historic residence, originally built in **1820** as a law office and private home. Rich in history yet thoughtfully updated for modern living, this distinguished plaque-designated Colonial seamlessly blends timeless architecture with today’s conveniences. Classic Old Town details—including elegant crown moldings, chair rails, wainscoting, Craftsman built-ins, and pristine hardwood floors—create a warm, sophisticated atmosphere throughout. Enter through the welcoming Prince Street entrance into a gracious foyer, an ideal gallery for displaying artwork and greeting guests.
The sun-filled living room features soaring nine-foot ceilings, beautiful city views, and an inviting elegance perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The formal dining room, complete with a sparkling chandelier, custom built-ins, and display cabinetry, sets the stage for memorable dinners and holiday celebrations. The beautifully updated kitchen combines historic charm with modern style, offering stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, honed granite countertops, and a convenient breakfast bar. Just beyond, discover one of the home’s true treasures—a spectacular private walled garden filled with quaint fountain and lush seasonal plantings, a tranquil fountain, and plenty of space for relaxing or dining under the stars. Tucked behind the garden are two coveted off-street parking spaces, including an EV charging station—an extraordinary luxury in the heart of Old Town.
Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and two full baths provide a peaceful retreat. The primary suite offers generous closet space, abundant natural light, picturesque Prince Street views, gleaming hardwood floors, and a beautiful ensuite bath with a large glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated hall bath complete the upper level, while a lower-level storage basement provides exceptional organization and convenience.
Best of all, Old Town is just outside your front door. Minutes to King Street, the waterfront, Metro, charming boutiques, award-winning restaurants, parks, and local events. This is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Alexandria’s history while enjoying one of the most sought-after lifestyles in the region.
