About This Home
As of July 2025Open House Sunday (6/8) 2:00-4:00PM. Normally when you purchase a historic Old Town home, there’s a trade-off between historic charm and modern conveniences. Not here at 409 N West. This move in ready 1909 Federal home was custom built by local Alexandria legend—even the original 115-year old building permit is on hand to inspect! Charming built ins, soaring ceilings with chunky millwork, bright open spaces, heart pine floors and clean, contemporary finishes are married with heated kitchen tile floors and a two-way gas fireplace which the living room and dining share. Skylights throughout the upper level and the cutest little half bath on main level for your dinner guests. The fully fenced backyard is perfect for fido—it also happens to be a lush urban oasis. The location is super convenient. Plenty of parking right out in front of the home. Just four block walk to Braddock Metro Station, and just several blocks to countless Old Town favorite restaurants and shopping: Call Your Mother, Thompson Italian, Rising Sol Yoga, Spill the Tea, Starbucks, Goodies Frozen Custard and much more.
