Regal Estate in Historic Alexandria: "The Prince" Lists for $4M

Luxury Property in Old Town Alexandria Hits Market, Combining History and Artistry

I
n the heart of Old Town Alexandria, a rare gem has emerged on the market: "The Prince," an 1830 residence that seamlessly blends historic grandeur with cutting-edge design. This six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath masterpiece boasts 360-degree views of the cityscape and partial views of the Potomac River from its fifth-level rooftop deck, complete with a putting green – a first for any historic home in Alexandria's Old & Historic District.

    Inside, artisans have meticulously restored and enhanced original features to striking effect. The grand central staircase now shines behind glass and custom lighting, while a manual dumbwaiter has been transformed into a sculptural centerpiece. European and Early American antiques are thoughtfully integrated with modern smart-home technology and luxury design throughout the property.

    The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring a La Cornue range, bespoke cabinetry, and Belvedere quartzite countertops. Eight fireplaces, including one in every bedroom and main entertaining spaces, add warmth to the residence. Smart home systems control lighting, sound, and security, while a lower-level suite offers private entry, kitchenette, washer/dryer, and potential for rental income.

    The property's serene garden courtyard features six fountains and an arched walkway lit by starlight-inspired lighting, perfect for elegant entertaining. Rare off-street parking includes a private, gated rear lot and the largest garage door ever approved for a historic property in Alexandria's Old & Historic District.

    Listed through TTR Sotheby's International Realty, "The Prince" carries an annual tax bill of $18,411, reflecting its premium status in one of the region's most prestigious neighborhoods. This living work of art is not merely a home – it's a tribute to craftsmanship and a crown jewel of Old Town Alexandria.
