205 S Fayette St S$1,325,000Sold

Built in the mid-1800s and part of Alexandria's historic property plaque program, 205 S. Fayette has been lovingly and thoroughly updated to meet the needs of modern living while retaining its unique historic character. The three bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home has undergone a $200,000+ whole-house remodel in recent years, during which the owners fully renovated the kitchen and each bathroom, replaced all mechanical systems, and redesigned the exterior landscape.

205 S. Fayette's traditional layout offers formal and flexible living spaces. A sparkling white kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, quartz counter tops, shaker cabinetry, and a generous pantry with laundry closet. The upstairs features a primary bedroom with en suite bathroom and two additional light-filled bedrooms, all with generous closet space.

The rear patio and garden were designed by a prominent landscape architect who helped revive the Bishop's Garden at the Washington National Cathedral, among other important projects. All of the property's nearly 1,700 square feet are above-grade living with extra storage available in the attic.

Ideally located on a tranquil block in the heart of Old Town, just a couple of blocks off King Steet, 205 S. Fayette is situated to take advantage of everything Alexandria has to offer, from shopping, restaurants, parks and schools to Metro, Amtrak and the Potomac River.
