Alexandria - Minutes from Old Town ⊹ Minutes from D.C ⊹ Minutes from The George Washington Masonic Memorial ⊹ George Washington's Mount Vernon ⊹ Fine Dining ⊹ Micro Breweries ⊹ Coffee Shops ⊹ Bakeries ⊹ Public Transit (VRE/Metro) ⊹ Shopping ⊹Alexandria Waterfront

This spacious 3 story townhome has free residential garage parking, driveway parking and free street parking. Set in a charming neighborhood of Alexandria, enjoy long walks along side-walked streets to view nearby historic homes. Drive 10 mins to Old Town Alexandria with a straight shot down historic King street. Drive 10 minutes via 395 to cross the Potomac into our Nations Capitol, Washington DC. You may also take advantage of one of the several bike/scooter shares that are offered in the area.

This property is conveniently located with access to multiple forms of public transportation.

Dash Bus: DASH is a local bus service that is free to riders. It travels all over Alexandria, but will not take you into DC. You can hop on the Dash Bus just a few feet from the front door in both directions.

WMAT Bus: If you were to take a WMAT bus which travels around Northern VA and DC, you would have to either use your phone, acquire a smartrip card, or have exact change on the bus itself.

Metro: We are located about 2 miles from the King Street Metro Station and a little over 2 miles to the Braddock Street Station. There is a bus stop at the end of our block for the free Alexandria city bus (Dash) that runs directly to the Metro stop. {Trains: Blue and Yellow Lines}. It would take you less than 10 mins by car and probably 25-30 mins to walk it if the weather was nice.

Amtrak: Amtrak provides interstate travel and also has a stop at King Street. If headed north, the next stop after King Street is Union Station in Washington DC. Please check their website for schedules and available stops.

King Street Trolley: Not really an option from the house, but fun nonetheless if you're in Old Town. The King Street Trolley runs every 15 minutes between Alexandria City Hall/Market Square and the King St – Old Town Metrorail station from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week, including holidays. That said the closest spot you could pick it up would be about 2 miles down towards Old Town.

**There are also ample Uber and Lyft rides in the area.

It’s always a challenge to find a property with en suite bathrooms for 3 or 4 couples at a fairly reasonable price and in a good location. And, despite being next to a high school with the accompanying traffic, it was reasonably quiet. We would definitely stay there again.

This luxurious home is part of a highly sought after neighborhood in Alexandria. The history of Alexandria, Virginia, begins with the first European settlement in 1695. Over the next century, the town became a significant port. In 1801, much of Alexandria was swept into the new District of Columbia; it was damaged along with much of the rest of the capital during the War of 1812. In 1846, Alexandria was returned to Virginia, along with the rest of the District's territory on the western side of the Potomac River. After Virginia seceded in 1861, Alexandria was swiftly captured by Union forces and held for the remainder of the American Civil War. In the late 20th century, Alexandria became a key part of the rapidly growing Northern Virginia region.

Alexandria is safe, walkable and close to everything. We love being here and know you will too.

What makes this property unique

The entire luxurious inspired home is yours. 3 levels, 3 bedrooms (4 beds), 3.5 baths, residential driveway, garage, garden patio with a fire pit and dining table, TVs in every room, fast internet, dedicated workspace, gourmet kitchen, seating for 8-10 at the dining table, closet space.
