Experience the charm of Old Town with this beautifully updated 19th-century duplex that seamlessly blends historic character with modern comfort. Perfectly positioned on one of Old Town’s most picturesque blocks, 316 N Royal Street offers unmatched convenience just steps from King Street’s vibrant restaurants and shops, the Alexandria waterfront, and the green spaces of Founders Park.

Inside, you’ll find over 1,400 square feet of living space across three levels, featuring two spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and charming hardwood floors throughout. The main living area is anchored by a cozy fireplace and enhanced by recessed lighting, while a built-in, motorized hidden TV adds a touch of modern luxury. A bright dining area and family room open to the chef’s kitchen, appointed with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and an island, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The main level also includes a newly remodeled powder room (2025), a pantry, and a newer washer and dryer.

Step outside to enjoy a private, fully fenced backyard with a patio and green space, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings at home. Parking is rarely this easy in Old Town—this home includes a dedicated assigned space behind the property. An unfinished lower level provides excellent storage or flex space.

Upstairs, the secondary bedroom features a walk-in closet with new flooring and a fully renovated en suite bath (2025). The primary suite offers a second fireplace, a custom walk-in closet, and a spacious bath with a granite-topped vanity and oversized shower.

Recent upgrades add even more peace of mind: a new sewer line (2023), freshly painted (2025), power-washed patio (2025), and about half of the windows replaced (2023).

With its blend of history, thoughtful updates, and a prime location, this home delivers the quintessential Old Town lifestyle—morning walks along the Potomac, evenings on King Street, and effortless access to commuter routes.
