Property Description

A rare piece of Alexandria history! 123 S. Pitt Street stands on land once owned by George Washington, offering a remarkable connection to Alexandria's early history. In 1763, Washington purchased the half-acre parcel at the corner of Pitt and Prince Streets as Alexandria expanded beyond its original boundaries. In 1797, he subdivided the property into smaller building lots, and modest frame houses were constructed soon after, later known locally as the “Washington Tenements.” Today, the property remains a tangible link to Alexandria's earliest years and to Washington's vision for the city's development. Now offered for sale, this is a rare opportunity to own a detached historic residence in the heart of Old Town Alexandria. This exceptional three-bedroom, two-bath home is distinguished by its iconic curb appeal, timeless architectural presence, and a unique, highly functional floor plan. The main level features a gracious living room with a fireplace and a formal dining room with its own fireplace, while numerous windows create a bright, light-filled interior. The inviting kitchen offers convenient side-door access. The thoughtfully excavated lower level creates an extraordinary family room with a striking black-and-white checkerboard marble floor, dramatic stone walls, exposed brick foundation, and original 1800s framing timbers, resulting in a truly remarkable space. Upper levels include three well-proportioned bedrooms and a finished attic providing flexible additional space. Original architectural details remain throughout, reflecting generations of careful stewardship and respect for the home's historic character. Outside, a private gated garden offers a peaceful retreat in one of Old Town's most desirable locations, just moments from the waterfront, shops, and restaurants.
