The Captain Harper House, located at 103 Prince, is a remarkable residence dating back to 1769. Occupying a prime position on Old Town's iconic cobblestone “Captain’s Row," this rare offering not only captures the character of 18th-century Alexandria with its preserved period details and original elements but also presents the best of modern luxury living with smart and tasteful updates.

The historic home has been exceptionally maintained over the years. Its special features include X' high ceilings, wide-planked hardwood floors, hand-crafted millwork, elegant built-in cabinetry and a covered alleyway.

While the house has been updated to modern luxury living standards, its notable historic elements have been carefully preserved.

The home offers formal living and dining rooms, a spacious gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances and a half bath on the main level. Upstairs is a spacious primary suite with a private den/library and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. The top floor houses a large ensuite bedroom with an updated full bath. A private patio at the rear of the house allows for outdoor entertaining in a tranquil, brick patio environment.
103 Prince has been both a cherished private residence and an exceptionally successful AirBnB over the years. It is a wonderful property with flexible options.

103 Prince is located just one block away from famous King Street restaurants, boutiques, parks, and the Potomac River waterfront. Whether you’re seeking a primary residence, an income-generating property, or the best of both worlds, this special Captain's Row home offers a perfect blend of legacy, charm and modern luxury living.
