About this listing

Two blocks from the heart of Old Town, 403 South Fairfax Street offers a rare combination of historic character, modern luxury, and livable space in one of Alexandria’s most vibrant and walkable settings. Just minutes from King Street, the waterfront, and Old Town’s best restaurants, shops, and parks, the home places you directly in the center of it all, with immediate access to everything that defines this exceptional neighborhood, including the convenience of a grocery store only one block away. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence spans approximately 2,600+ square feet and has been thoughtfully updated to support both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The home features high-end appliances, including Miele, Sub-Zero, and Viking, paired with a layout that feels intuitive, comfortable, and functional. Built in the early 1800s, the home is an example of Alexandria’s historic “flounder house” style, though what stands out most is how seamlessly that history has been adapted for modern living. Original hardwood floors anchor the heart of the home, while preserved architectural details, particularly in the family room, highlight its 200-year legacy. The upper level includes a flexible primary suite with an adjoining office or sitting room, offering an ideal work-from-home setup or private retreat. A standout feature is the redesigned, two-tier courtyard, creating a true outdoor living environment rarely found in Old Town. Entered through a private gate and enhanced with thoughtful landscaping, the space includes both an upper courtyard and a lower patio with direct access from the kitchen, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. Additional features include a copper roof and six fireplaces, further reinforcing the home’s blend of enduring craftsmanship and modern updates. A true gem in every sense, this is a home that offers not only exceptional livability but a meaningful connection to Alexandria’s rich architectural heritage.Show more
