819 Prince St

Rounding the corner of Prince Street at the intersection of Alfred, this Federal style row house makes a distinct first impression. True-to-the-period plaster walls, high ceilings and dentil crown molding add dimension to spacious rooms. Just past the foyer is the living room and the first of five wood-burning fireplaces. A central hallway leads to the dining room and second fireplace. The dining room opens to a raised hearth fireplace and AGA stove to the right of the kitchen. Brick flooring leads past the French porcelain sink and wraps around to the large butcher block island. To the left of the kitchen, a delightful breakfast area opens to an enchanting, open air courtyard with a brick walkway and sizable stone patio. Three gardens line the walkway; a brick wall hedges the west side of the courtyard, bordering Alfred Street. Past the patio is the Carriage House - perfect for an office or studio - with heat and air conditioning. Behind the Carriage House is an alley with one designated parking space. Upstairs, a sitting area adjoins the master bedroom where a fourth fireplace, walk-in closet, and en suite bath are highlights. A third bedroom completes the second floor; a third bedroom is on the third floor. 819 Prince Street is located in the heart of Old Town, close to King Street shopping, many acclaimed Alexandrian restaurants, and more. The King Street Metro and multiple DASH bus stops are also nearby. The HVAC, furnace, compressor and thermostat - all American Standard - were updated this year.
