This is the perfect house for families wishing to be close to Old Town Alexandria or Washington DC. Children will enjoy the large backyard. Wonderful restaurants and a cozy bakery are within walking distance. Parking is free for multiple cars. The Metro is only a 15 minute walk.
The interior design of the house uses high end Danish and Swedish furniture and photos from a world famous drone photographer from Sweden.
I am a coffee fanatic so I enjoy providing free whole bean coffee and Nespresso pods. Message me and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Charming neighborhood. Many people walk, run, or walk their dogs in the neighborhood. Nearby neighbors are extremely friendly....feel free to say hello to any of the neighbors. You can choose to use either the August Home Smart Lock or a key that is located in a lockbox by the front door.

Lovely home, super comfortable beds, nice fenced in yard, and close to lots of great restaurants! Mark was such a kind host. We all enjoyed the couple days we stayed.
Our church leadership team had a weekend retreat at this property. The house was cozy and met our needs well. Updated appliances and TVs. Needed a little attention to detail regarding cleanliness, but was an overall excellent stay...would definitely stay again.
Charming home with alot of character in a nice neighborhood. Home was clean and accurate to pictures. Host communication was good and he messaged me to make sure everything was okay. It was a nice stay without any issues.
I hosted out of town guests and we enjoyed the house. Mark was attentive and helped us out with a TV glitch that we had. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-stocked, and we had plenty of towels. We used the deck, and enjoyed the neighborhood, but felt that the yard could have been maintained better.
Great location for exploring Alexandria and DC area. We walked to metro and went into DC for sightseeing. Easy to get around to all the sights. Had not been to Alexandria before and really liked the town. Very walkable and incredible history all around. House was great. Thank you.
This house was located in a quiet, beautiful and friendly neighborhood. It took about 15 min to walk to the metro. There were several good restaurants between the metro and the house where we could stop to eat on our way back to the house after a day of sight seeing. Aldi and Walgreen were also very close to the house. We loved the coffee!! Mark was very attentive to our needs and quick to respond. We would most definitely stay in this house again!
Mark was a great host, very responsive to any questions we had. House was very comfortable. We were close to town as well as to DC since we were in town for a family wedding! Had a great time !
Very nice and quiet house that is located neat (15 minute walk) to the train to get into DC. Also very close to nice dining in Alexandria. Mark was very helpful to us with the check in process and we had no issues during our stay.
We had family and dogs with us for a wedding nearby. The house is charming and was very comfortable for all of us. Love how dog friendly and coffee drinker friendly Mark has made this home. Super well-equipped kitchen. Excellent location!
We really enjoyed our stay here. Located in a quiet neighborhood and proximal to many restaurants and cafes. I would recommend if you are looking for a place that is family-friendly.
Our visit to our daughterâs home in Alexandria for theThanksgiving holiday was made super special by our stay at Markâs house. Mark made the processes of check in and out easy and was very attentive during our stay. The house was roomy and well equipped for our adult family and in a friendly, well kept neighborhood with ample street parking. Having a fenced in backyard for our small dogs was extremely convenient. We would definitely like to stay at Markâs again on future visits to Alexandria.
Wonderful in so many ways. So many nice touches. We loved the decor and the thoughtfulness of so many details. We had 3 main issues. First, the upstairs shower is in serious need of updating and felt like a cheap rental apt from my 20s and the shower head was so low my husband and teen boys had to shower in the basement. Second, the grass was so high in the backyard that we couldnât use the fire pit or play cornhole. Third, the kitchen was difficultly small. One person at a time. And it serves as the passage to the basement. We worked it out, but 6 people in the house would be tough. Just making sure people can make informed decisions. Despite these issues, we greatly enjoyed our stay and Markâs ability to host well. It was convenient for our DC activities and had great food nearby. The washer and dryer were a huge help. We would consider staying again. It would be nice though if the basement bedroom had some sort of shelf to serve as a nightstand, and had a smaller table in the room. We loved the August Home door lock app. And the variety of coffee was fun. The house felt very clean. The fan on the back deck kept bugs away and made for a pleasant sit even in mid 80s weather in the evening.
Cozy neighborhood with great eats, tidy home with comfy beds. Clean and comfortable. A nice place in the middle of all that was my sonâs wedding ceremony, reception and Melsi.
This Alexandria home was a tranquil retreat after busy days touring Washington DC. It was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The description of the home and location were accurate. Our host was a great communicator, providing us with necessary information and helpful tips. We would recommend this home without reservation.
The backyard is large and a plus for families with young children and/or a dog(s). The teak table and dining chairs on the back deck are a great place to relax outdoors or to barbecue on the gas grill.
