Alexandria Old Town Homes For Sale

Old Town Alexandria is the city’s historical seat, located right on the western banks of the Potomac River. Officially founded in 1749, it actually dates back even further. The old tobacco port is now a cosmopolitan hot spot, attracting swarms of tourists and offering great restaurants, shops and galleries. And, you can’t forget about the great homes for sale. Because you’re really not here for retail news—it’s all about the properties!

You’ll find some of the oldest homes for sale here in all of Washington Metro, such as a large single-family home built in 1750 that recently closed for a cool $2 million. There are plenty of other Alexandria Old Town homes for sale that date from the mid-1700s all the way through the nineteenth century with the only real pause in construction being the Civil War years. And when the fighting ended the hammers started swinging again and never stopped—condos for sale are still being built today, including the Oronoco—an adaptive reuse of an old waterfront office building with 60 upscale and modernistic flats starting at over a million bucks and climbing steeply from there!
