Price Upon Request
Historic roots. An exceptional lot. A rare opportunity to create something special in Old Town’s coveted Southeast Quadrant. Built in 1846, this detached home at 719 S. Fairfax Street pairs nearly two centuries of Alexandria history with a deep, generously sized lot—the standout feature of a property brimming with possibility. City records show 2,522 sqft for the lot.
Currently offering three bedrooms, two full baths, and approximately 1,604 square feet, the home requires substantial renovation and invites a thoughtful transformation.
