Town House

Built in 1998

Nestled in the prestigious Queens Row, this all-brick townhome boasts three bright and open levels of living space, perfectly blending classic colonial elegance with modern comfort. The home features beautiful oak hardwood floors throughout, extensive crown molding, wainscoting, and soaring nine-foot and eleven-foot ceilings. Two gas fireplaces add warmth and charm, while the built-in cabinetry and large room sizes provide both functionality and a touch of luxury. Each of the three bedrooms comes with a full bath, ensuring privacy and convenience. The home is further enhanced by a large, sunny rear bay window, recently replaced custom windows, two oversized skylights, and two assigned parking spaces in a prime parking lot directly behind the home.

Upon entering, you are greeted by an ample walkway with a wood staircase that exemplifies elegant colonial design. The kitchen features white cabinetry, granite counters, glass french doors, recessed lighting, and gas cooking. Adjacent to the kitchen, the breakfast room is adorned with crown molding and a large window with shutters overlooking Union Street. The formal dining room is a masterpiece with hardwood floors, molding throughout, and a newly built-in wall-to-wall china display with wooden countertops, a wine chiller, and LED lighting, adding elegance and sophistication to the space. The living room invites relaxation with a gas fireplace, hardwood floors, built-ins, recessed lighting, and a four-section French door with a transom window opening to the slate patio and fenced rear yard.

The primary suite is a true retreat, offering a wall of closets plus a walk-in closet, hardwood floors, 11-foot ceilings, a second gas fireplace, recessed lighting, and a large bay window that bathes the room in morning sun. The primary bath has been completely remodeled with newer cabinetry, marble flooring and walls, dual vanity sinks, designer lighting, and an oversized shower with floor-to-ceiling rectangular tiles and a bench. The second bedroom also features hardwood floors, a double closet, and two windows offering afternoon eastern sun, along with its own spacious bathroom. The sunny upper staircase, illuminated by one of two skylights, leads to the top level, where the third bedroom and its full bath await.

The upper level also includes a versatile office/den and a laundry room with extended storage. Roof access provides stunning views of Old Town and the river. The home is equipped with a 3-zoned gas furnace and a gas water heater, with the HVAC replaced in 2021 and the water heater in 2017. A motorized awning off the living area and over the flagstone patio is ideal for al fresco dining. Additionally, TVs in the kitchen and living room, as well as the living area surround system, convey with the home.

Located in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, this gorgeous home is steps away from Founders Park and the Potomac River. Enjoy the extensive dining options nearby, from formal restaurants to casual eateries. Take the trolley to explore all of King Street and Old Town, or spend an evening on a riverboat. The walkways and bike trails along the river are seconds away, offering ample opportunities for outdoor activities. Conveniently situated, the home is just a block away from the water taxi to Nationals games and Georgetown, less than two blocks from the restaurants on King Street, and within a mile of two metro stations. The area also boasts bike routes within three blocks, a secure bike room, and is within a half-mile of multiple grocery stores, a post office, a library, and a CVS. Experience the charm and convenience of living in one of Alexandria's most sought-after locations.
