About this home
Built around 1905 and set on one of Old Town Alexandria’s most picturesque streets, this exceptional historic residence offers timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location in the heart of this beloved waterfront community. Rich in history, the property is storied to have originally served as a neighborhood store before being transformed into the distinguished residence it is today. A classic façade welcomes you into a formal entry foyer highlighted by an exquisite staircase and a convenient coat closet. The main level unfolds into a gracious double parlor with two front-facing windows overlooking S. Lee Street. Gorgeous original wood floors extend throughout the first and second levels, complemented by high ceilings and abundant natural light. Anchoring the expansive living space is a beautiful wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in bookcases designed in a distinctive step-back style, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The space flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, ideal for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. The dining room features high ceilings and custom wallpaper, adding depth and sophistication. The renovated kitchen blends style and function with chic countertops, glass-front cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a large pantry. A charming French door opens to the private rear patio, where a slate terrace shaded by a beautiful magnolia tree creates a serene outdoor retreat with convenient alley access. Upstairs, the home offers three spacious bedrooms and two beautifully renovated bathrooms. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a lovely bay window bump-out, custom built-ins, and a walk-in closet with a California Closets system. A skylight in the upper hallway fills the space with natural light. An unfinished basement provides excellent storage. Meticulously maintained, the home also features updated systems and windows, offering modern comfort while preserving its historic integrity. This is a truly special offering in the heart of Old Town Alexandria—just moments from shops, restaurants, parks, and the waterfront, with easy access to Washington, DC, and the airport. A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Alexandria’s history in one of its most sought-after locations.
