Property Description
Steeped in mid-19th century history, this exquisite Federal-style brick townhouse on one of Old Town’s most photographed streets offers the opportunity to own a gracious, light-filled and updated residence on an expansive 2,880 square foot double lot, rarely available in the historic district with two off-street brick-paved parking spaces. Elegantly appointed with reclaimed heart of pine floors, exposed brick walls, plantation shutters, tall ceilings, custom built-ins, and two gas fireplaces, this stately 2,780 square foot residence offers a highly desirable main level floor plan. Just inside, the living room opens seamlessly into the dining room allowing for easy entertaining. Beyond the powder room, the open kitchen and family room provide the popular “great room” lifestyle for casual, everyday living. This spacious kitchen boasts plentiful quartz countertops, abundant storage, a breakfast bar, and a pantry. Gorgeous garden views and morning sun stream through the French doors and bay window to brighten the lovely family room and kitchen. Just outside, the private, fully enclosed walled garden is appointed with a gorgeous dogwood, dwarf red maple, hydrangeas, hostas, liriope, and other perennials. The spacious brick patio provides a private oasis for lounging, dining, and grilling. Two garden sheds, landscape lighting, and an irrigation system enable carefree garden maintenance. The upper-level includes a large primary bedroom suite with garden views and a well-designed, updated full-bath complete with a steam shower, footed tub, double sink vanity and additional closets. This level has two additional bedrooms and another updated full bath. The lower-level features a large recreation room with built-ins, surround sound speakers, a third full bath and a spacious laundry room. A separate lower-level storage room houses the mechanical systems and offers plenty of additional storage. Located just 2 blocks from the restaurants and shops of famed King Street and 5 blocks from the Potomac River waterfront, this home epitomizes the walkable lifestyle of Alexandria’s historic Old Town. Additionally, this home is less than 1 mile to King Street Metro, 4 miles to Reagan National Airport, and 7 miles to Washington, DC. Notes: This listing includes both lots 520 and 522 Queen Street. A conservation easement on these lots preserves the open space.
