Washington Family Property, Lower Carriage House in Old Town on 107 S Lee Street

Oldest functioning property in Old Town dating back to 1750. Originally built by Lawrence Washington, George Washington’s half-brother, who then passed the property to our founding father. Walk in the footsteps of authentic American history.

This unit has a full kitchen and a washer/dryer, large smart TV, and an adorable, comfy reading nook. Updated appliances along with a small electric fireplace for ambiance (not wood due to guest safety) provide for a wonderful stay in Old Town on the oldest functioning property in Old Town, dating back to 1750. The charm and location are incomparable.

Wonderful location

This property is in a perfect location. Steps to restaurants and shops. We did have a rental car and there were several parking areas close by However….You do not need a car. The bus and trolly stops were close and took you to the train station. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely stay here again!!!

Historic vibe with modern amenities

We loved our weekend in Old Town Alexandria and this place was a key part of it! The location is fantastic - took a train to Alexandria and then Uber to the place, so we didn't need a car all weekend. Tons of pubs/restaurants/activities going on within walking distance. Had a few hiccups with the heat and wifi, but the owner was responsive and took care of everything. Would def stay here again!

Great Home, Great Location

I can't say enough good things about this property and host. Not only is it in the heart of Old Town, Alexandria, the newly renovated studio is nicely appointed and cozy. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable, including a wine fridge. The bathroom was clean, and the shower worked well. It also included a washer/dryer in case you need it. Garage parking is close by and reasonably priced, and once parked, you can just roam King Street and enjoy any of the local restaurants and tavern. The host was super communicative and got back to me promptly when I had questions. I was visiting for work but will definitely bring my wife back and stay here in the near future.

Fabulous location

Clean and had all of the essentials. Close to restaurants, historical sites. Comfy bed, but parking in this walkable city is tough to find. We would definitely stay again and take the water taxi across the river to DC.

This is a historic property which has been turned into a comfortable studio apartment. The best part is that you literally step outside your door and you’re in the heart of Old Town. The host was very accessible when I needed help getting in. It was a great weekend getaway.

Carriage house

The carriage house is perfectly located by all the shops and restaurants downtown. It has a great courtyard that is shared with the oldest inhabited property in Alexandria with a couple of fire pits and lots of comfortable seating. The host was more than accommodating and easily accessible. Definitely recommend.
