About the Listing MCE1 - 3051287

Built circa 1820, this classic detached historic home is nestled among one of Old Town’s most historic streets and in the heart of the coveted southeast quadrant of Old Town Alexandria. The home—just two blocks from King Street’s dining and shopping district—retains much of its historic character while combining features and amenities that are well-suited to today’s lifestyle. The residence features stunning original heart pine hardwood floors, high ceilings, period built-ins, four fireplaces, and designer touches throughout. The first floor features a spacious double parlor with a fireplace and a wall of built-ins for both display and storage. A few steps down you’ll find the gracious dining room with a second fireplace, additional built-ins, an exterior entrance, and Farrow & Ball wallpaper. Just beyond is a discreetly located powder room off the kitchen, and the renovated kitchen is highlighted by stainless steel appliances, a Viking gas range, granite countertops, a wood topped central island, large format stone tile flooring, and a French door that leads to the expansive back garden/patio. Follow the brick pathway passing the cozy screened porch and onto the deep tree shaded yard, complete with a fire pit and conversation area.. Heading up the historic staircase to second floor, you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom with a wall of closets and built-ins along with a designer wallpapered accent wall. Heading towards the second bedroom you’ll pass through the bonus room on this level, a cozy space that features a third fireplace as well as additional custom storage. The full bathroom just off this room on this level has been beautifully updated with Carrara basketweave mosaic tile, a large walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, and a marble-topped vanity. Continuing to the rear and down a few steps you’ll find the spacious and sunny second bedroom with beautiful wood floors on this level. The finished lower level is a beautiful space complete with room for a home office, a movie room, or a home gym. (The loveseat pictured will remain for the tenants’ use.) A full-size washer and dryer are also located on this level, as is the home’s second full bathroom with a large soaking tub and modern touches. The home is located a stone’s throw from expansive outdoor green spaces, parks, dog recreation areas, walking/biking trails, the riverfront, and Old Town's specialty boutiques and fine restaurants. The home’s central Old Town location is a commuter’s dream: approximately 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, and farmers’ markets are also conveniently located nearby. Dogs are welcomed on a case-by-case basis. Applications are submitted online, and there is a $50 non-refundable application fee per adult. The first full month's rent, security deposit, and pet deposit (if applicable and determined by size and age of dog) are due at lease signing.
