Property Description

Among the many Old Town Alexandria homes that offer wonderful curb appeal, this one remains a standout. It's the covered front porch – an elegant, welcoming addition from the early 1900s — that catches the eye of passers by. Set on a double lot (3,710 sq ft), the original, detached Victorian/Queen Anne home dates to the mid-1850s. *** That original three-level structure — plus an unfinished basement — was augmented by a two-level addition in the early 1900's, and the result is a floor plan with real character rather than a predictable footprint. Step in from the front porch to a gracious foyer. To the right, a cozy living room centers on a gas fireplace for winter evenings, with plantation shutters that open to views of the street. Behind it, offset from a powder room tucked at the end of the foyer, a generous dining room features built-ins at one end and more plantation shutters. The addition beyond holds a well-appointed, updated kitchen: granite counters, a glass tile backsplash, wood-tone cabinetry, a window bench, an optional movable island, with a back door leading directly to the yard and parking beyond. A mix of original and newer hardwoods run throughout the main level and continue upstairs. There's a bedroom to the front of the house with a hall bath at the top of the stairs. The primary bedroom occupies the back of the original structure, connecting to a spacious en-suite bath in the addition's second level, complete with soaking tub, separate shower, and an extra double closet. The third floor flexes to fit your needs — a third bedroom, office, or rec room — with closet space tucked under the eaves. The lower level, accessible both from inside and through exterior bulkhead doors at the rear of the house, offers laundry and abundant shelf storage, *** The stunning back yard delivers, for Old Town, a coveted sense of privacy and tranquility. Perennials line the walkway and rear of the property for bursts of seasonal color. A patio near the house is ready for grilling with herbs nearby, ready to be cut then dinner al fresco. And a trellis pergola set apart from the home creates a defined space to gather and relax. The yard is fully fenced, with separate fenced areas flanking each side of the house. The location is ideal: an easy walk to Lyles Crouch Elementary in one direction and Balducci's in the other, with two full-size off-street parking spaces tucked behind the back yard off an alley – no struggling for street parking necessary! *** And to make things even better, this wonderful home is listed below Tax Assessed Value!! *** Live in the house as it stands, or take advantage of the oversized lot to expand. Two previous owners secured Board of Architectural Review approval for additions to the property, though neither moved forward. Those BAR approvals are available to review on-site/in person, and offer a head start for anyone looking to customize or expand. Don't let the opportunity pass you by to own this piece of Old Town's history.
