Originally built in 1820, this exceptional property has been gutted down to the studs on the interior and, along with the original historic exterior, has been meticulously renovated, repaired and structurally reinforced from 2014-2017 by its present owners. With respect for the integrity of the historic property, it has been brought up to today's standards in design, style and comfort. A complete summary of the rehabilitation of the Exterior and Interior are included in the Document Section of Bright. Included in the summary are the Structural Reinforcements including the exterior brick walls and chimney being reinforced with mortar applied between the exterior and interior brick walls, the reinforcement of the structural framing of the staircase to accommodate a new open stairwell, the demolition of the main floor down to the structural framing to then build a new utility and laundry room, half bath, dining and open kitchen and family rooms and the demolition of the upper two floors to include the creation of an alcove in the living room, custom-built walk-in closets, as well as French doors to create rear walls at all three levels. Exterior work includes the replacement of the gas line and meter, underground water supply line, electric supply line and the reconfiguration of the original sewer line to insure proper drainage. Interior renovations include all plumbing, lighting, electric and HVAC systems, gourmet kitchen and baths as well as the removal, refinishing and reinstalling of the original heart pine floors. No stone has been left unturned in the transformation of this exceptional property!Parking on the first five blocks of Lee Street is unique in that it is allowed on one side only. This serves as a deterrent to visitors roaming for paid parking. Residents with quadrant 1 stickers park 24/7. If garage parking is a preference, a monthly lot is a three-minute walk from the property. The sellers will pay for parking for one year. Alexandria ~ and Old Town, in particular ~ is known for its many events throughout the year. The Scottish Christmas Walk, George Washington Birthday Parade, St. Patrick's Day Parade and the Historic Alexandria Homes Tour are examples of fun ways to celebrate the holidays in Old Town... and then there is Halloween! Trick-or-Treat on Lee Street is a fun and festive event which features residents of Lee Street decorating their homes and dressing for the occasion to the glee of the trick-or-treaters.
