Property Description
In a city where historic charm and modern energy coexist effortlessly, Alexandria House stands as a testament to enduring architectural distinction and vibrant urban living. Perfectly poised on the 17th floor of this iconic residence, Unit #1704 presents a rare opportunity to reimagine and personalize a space with extraordinary potential. With 1,300 square feet of well-proportioned interior space and an exceptional 775-square-foot private wrap-around balcony, this two-bedroom, two-bath condominium offers panoramic views of the Potomac River, the Capitol dome, the Masonic Temple, and the twinkling cityscape beyond.
From the moment you enter, the sense of openness and natural light is unmistakable. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors in every room flood the home with sunlight and blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. The gracious floor plan encourages effortless flow from one space to the next, grounded by rich bamboo flooring and anchored by a balcony that spans the entire residence. Each room opens directly to this expansive outdoor terrace, creating a dynamic living experience that evolves with the time of day and the changing seasons.
While the home exudes light, space, and potential, the kitchen and bathrooms await a thoughtful renovation that will bring the property to its full expression of luxury. For the discerning buyer, this presents a unique opportunity—to infuse your own style and elevate the home into a truly bespoke retreat in one of Alexandria's most desirable locations. With a layout that already encourages modern living, and core features like an in-unit washer and dryer, garage parking, and additional storage, the essentials are firmly in place for a remarkable transformation.
Life at Alexandria House is defined not only by its iconic presence but also by its sense of community and abundance of amenities. Residents enjoy the convenience of a secure lobby with 24-hour concierge, underground parking, and an enviable rooftop pool and terrace that delivers 360-degree views of the Potomac, Old Town, and the Washington skyline. Whether you're enjoying a quiet morning with coffee above the city, cocktails at sunset, or Alexandria's annual fireworks display, the rooftop becomes a treasured extension of your living space.
The lifestyle surrounding Unit #1704 is just as captivating. Located in the heart of Old Town North, the building is mere steps from the scenic Mount Vernon Trail, the charming Old Town waterfront, and Braddock Metro Station. Trader Joe's, Harris Teeter, and CVS are conveniently close, while acclaimed dining destinations such as Hank's Oyster Bar, Sister's Thai, and Oak Steakhouse are part of the neighborhood fabric. A block away, you'll find tennis courts and a lively weekly farmers market, and just around the corner, the soon-to-open Metro Stage Theater at The Venue promises cultural engagement at your doorstep. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate nearby options like Row House, Sport & Health, and One Life Fitness, while the neighborhood's complimentary shuttle makes exploring the area effortless.
More than just a home, Unit #1704 is an opportunity to craft a lifestyle of your own design—one rooted in views, volume, and vision. Whether you are seeking a high-rise haven with the ability to customize, a pied-e-terre immersed in the vibrancy of Alexandria, or a home that balances sky-high serenity with city convenience, this residence delivers the foundation for something truly special.
Welcome to a residence with both legacy and limitless possibility, your private oasis in the sky. Welcome to Alexandria House.
