Minutes from charming Delray - Alexandria - Minutes from Old Town ⊹ Minutes from D.C ⊹ Minutes from The George Washington Masonic Memorial ⊹ George Washington's Mount Vernon ⊹ Fine Dining ⊹ Micro Breweries ⊹ Coffee Shops ⊹ Bakeries ⊹ Public Transit (VRE/Metro) ⊹ Shopping ⊹Alexandria Waterfront This cosy 2 story home has free residential driveway parking and free street parking. Set in a charming and historic Delray neighborhood of Alexandria, enjoy long walks along side-walked streets to view nearby historic homes. Walk to local coffee shops and a gourmet wine market. Drive 10 mins to Old Town Alexandria. Drive 13 minutes via 395 to cross the Potomac into our Nations Capitol, Washington DC. You may also take advantage of one of the several bike/scooter shares that are offered in the area. This property is conveniently located with access to multiple forms of public transportation. Dash Bus: DASH is a local bus service that is free to riders. It travels all over Alexandria, but will not take you into DC. You can hop on the Dash Bus just a few feet from the front door in both directions. WMAT Bus: If you were to take a WMAT bus which travels around Northern VA and DC, you would have to either use your phone, acquire a smartrip card, or have exact change on the bus itself. Metro: We are located about 1 mile from the King Street Metro Station and a little over a ½ mile to the Braddock Street Station. There is a bus stop at the end of our block for the free Alexandria city bus (Dash) that runs directly to the Metro stop. {Trains: Blue and Yellow Lines}. It would take you less than 3 mins by car and probably 10-15 mins to walk to Braddock Station if the weather was nice. Amtrak: Amtrak provides interstate travel and also has a stop at King Street. If headed north, the next stop after King Street is Union Station in Washington DC. Please check their website for schedules and available stops. King Street Trolley: Not really an option from the house, but fun nonetheless if you're in Old Town. The King Street Trolley runs every 15 minutes between Alexandria City Hall/Market Square and the King St – Old Town Metrorail station from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week, including holidays. That said the closest spot you could pick it up would be about 2 miles down towards Old Town. \*\*There are also ample Uber and Lyft rides in the area. <\> Shirlington Village(Shopping/Dining/Live Entertainment/Movies) ⊹ 2.9 miles The George Washington Masonic National Memorial ⊹ 1.1 miles Old Town Alexandria ⊹ 1.5 miles The Pentagon ⊹ 4.8 miles National Landing/(Crystal City/ Amazon HQ2) ⊹ 3.5 miles Regan National Airport ⊹ 3.5 miles Arlington National Cemetery ⊹ 6.4 miles Lincoln Memorial ⊹ 6.7 miles Vietnam Veterans Memorial ⊹ 6.8 miles Martin Luther King Jr Memorial ⊹ 7 miles Smithsonian Museums ⊹ 7 miles Washington Monument ⊹ 7 miles Jefferson Memorial (Tidal Basin) ⊹ 7 miles International Spy Museum ⊹ 7.5 miles District Wharf ⊹ 7.3 miles United States Holocaust Memorial Museum ⊹ 7.7 miles National Harbor ⊹ 5.5 miles The Capitol ⊹ 8.4 miles Georgetown ⊹ 8.2 miles Capitol One Area ⊹ 8.7 miles The Whitehouse ⊹ 8.5 miles Dupont Circle ⊹ 8.8 miles Adams Morgan ⊹ 10.5 miles Mount Vernon ⊹ 8 miles Potomac Mill Outlet Mall ⊹ 21.8 miles Dulles Airport ⊹ 29.6 miles Quantico Marine Corp Museum ⊹ 40 miles Shenandoah National Park ⊹ 73.8 miles This home provides self check-in through a smart-lock located on the front entry door.

That's precisely the enchanting experience we recently discovered during a delightful stay in this truly special house in Old Town Alexandria. The neighborhood was an undeniable darling, and just a short walk to the Braddock Station Metro stop, which we rode into D.C. daily to see the museums, making it a seamless commute. The house was well-appointed and had everything we needed during our stay. For anyone seeking a unique and memorable journey, where stepping into the past is as easy as walking out your front door, this beautiful house in Old Town Alexandria comes with our highest recommendation. ##### Lindi C.
