Just past the den and closet, you’ll find access to the two-car garage with insulated garage door. Up one level is a wide-open main living area with hardwood flooring and recessed lighting. The living room features a second gas fireplace and three tall windows that overlook historic Princess Street and allow an abundance of light. The living room transitions to an open dining area and then into the large gourmet kitchen with beveled granite countertops, a huge island, state-of-the-art stainless steel gas cooktop, oven, microwave, and refrigerator. The island allows for plenty of cooking and socializing space and can serve as a breakfast bar as well. The kitchen also includes 42-inch upper cabinets, a pantry, nooks for storage, and a built-in desk. Just off the kitchen is a convenient half bathroom. Level three includes hardwood floors throughout. The owner’s suite includes a walk-in closet and a beautifully remodeled en suite bathroom. Completed in 2020, the bathroom includes a large soaking bathtub, a separate walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Down the hallway past the washer/dryer and full hallway bathroom is a second bedroom with walk-in closet. The top floor serves as a third large bedroom with plenty of lounging space, a full bathroom, vaulted ceiling, built-in shelving, hardwood floors, and a rooftop terrace with a gas hookup to enjoy endless grilling in the warmer months. Designed for comfort all around, the home includes two heating and air conditioning zones that keep all four levels comfortable year-round. The main and bedroom levels include nine-foot ceilings, and the windows are double-hung, double-paned throughout. The home also features a fire sprinkler system on all levels. In addition to these great amenities, Old Town Alexandria is right at your doorstep. Shops, restaurants, and the Potomac River are minutes away. King Street in the heart of Old Town is about .3 miles. The King Street Metro is just a mile away, but even closer is the free trolley at the corner of N. Fairfax and King Street to get to the station. You’re also just minutes from the water taxis that can take you to National Harbor and the D.C. Wharf.  If you’re looking to embrace all that Old Town Alexandria has to offer with modern comforts in a historic setting, 407 Princess is as good as it gets! *Room dimensions approximate.
