Description

River Views, History, and the Best of Old Town Living - Life at 430 S Lee Street feels like something out of a storybook. Built in 1846, this historic end-unit Victorian townhome has all the charm of Old Town’s past paired with the comforts you want today — and the views are the kind you’ll never forget. From every level of the home, the Potomac stretches out before you, bringing in light, color, and a sense of calm that shifts beautifully throughout the day. *Wake up to soft morning light over the river, watch the sunset turn the sky into a masterpiece, and at night, catch the water glimmering under the moon. From your own deck, you’ll have a front-row seat to some of Alexandria’s favorite traditions — the city’s Birthday fireworks in July, the dazzling New Year’s Eve show, and even the Scottish Walk Weekend Boat Parade of Lights. Imagine sharing these moments with friends and family right from home. *Inside, tall ceilings, original wood floors, and two wood-burning fireplaces make every space feel warm and welcoming. Thoughtful updates throughout give you flexibility without losing the historic soul of the house. With four bedrooms, three full baths, and one half bath, there’s room for family, guests, or a quiet home office. A fourth bedroom was added around 2016, and a second-floor full bath was recently added. *The kitchen sparkles with modern finishes, perfect for cooking dinner on a weeknight or gathering around the table on weekends. Just beyond the kitchen, a sunroom with floor-to-ceiling sliding windows opens to the fresh air, with a back door leading down to the lower deck and private garden. On the main level, three sets of French doors open onto an expansive deck overlooking the backyard, the park, and the river — a truly special spot to relax or entertain. Through the gate in the backyard, you can access the park and the bike path. *Beyond your doorstep, the very best of Old Town is just a short stroll away — the waterfront, favorite cafés, restaurants, and shops. You’re minutes from DC and National Airport, making everyday errands and big adventures equally easy. *430 S Lee Street is more than just a home — it’s a front-row seat to the beauty of the river, the traditions of Alexandria, and the timeless lifestyle that makes Old Town so beloved. *Welcome to a home you’ll love to live in.
