Property Description

Nestled on the picturesque, tree-lined South Fairfax Street, 509 ½ S Fairfax Street presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Alexandria's rich history — one of Old Town's celebrated Painted Ladies. Built in 1900, this stunning 2,550-square-foot Victorian townhome seamlessly blends timeless architectural details with modern comforts.

Throughout the home, you'll find elegantly high ceilings, custom built-ins, and abundant skylights that bathe the interiors in natural light. The spacious floor plan is designed for both gracious entertaining and relaxed daily living.

The true showstopper of this residence is the breathtaking screened-in porch, boasting soaring 12-foot ceilings and mahogany wood flooring. A perfect setting for alfresco gatherings or quiet moments of retreat.

From the primary bedroom, a private deck overlooks the serene, landscaped back garden, offering a tranquil escape rarely found in the heart of Old Town. All three bedrooms are generously sized, each exemplifying the easy elegance and thoughtful maintenance found throughout the home. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring custom built-ins.

The partially finished lower level adds flexibility, offering an abundance of storage space — a true luxury for historic townhomes of this era.

Situated in the highly sought-after Southeast Quadrant of Old Town Alexandria, this home is just steps from the Potomac River waterfront, charming boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and iconic historic landmarks. Enjoy the vibrant community spirit and rich cultural heritage that make Old Town one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the region. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a distinguished and lovingly maintained residence in the heart of Alexandria's most coveted neighborhood.
