Welcome to 815 S. Royal Street, an original Yates Gardens home in the SE quadrant of Old Town, Alexandria! Built in 1941, this light-filled home sits perched prominently above street level, offering privacy and beautiful tree-level views out the front and back of the house. At the main entrance, you are welcomed through a carved, solid mahogany main entry door into a dedicated foyer with a large coat closet. Continue into the living room where you'll find a wood-burning fireplace, a built-in bookcase, and French doors leading to a private terrace overlooking the expansive backyard. A nook in the front of the living room is perfect for an office and showcases a lovely floor-to-ceiling window, one of the many wonderful original features of the home. The recently remodeled kitchen offers stainless steel appliances including a gas Viking range, a Miele refrigerator, granite counters, and ample cabinet storage. A new HVAC was installed in 2022. The dining room's charming bay window provides a ground-level view of the lush back landscape. A half bath is discreetly tucked away on this level of the home, and a covered, ground-level door affords discreet storage and secure, covered access. Beautiful original random-width hardwood floors on the main and upper levels have been newly refinished. On the upper level, you will find 2 bedrooms with spacious closets, a full bath, a linen closet, and access to a floored attic offering plenty of additional storage space. An exceptionally large, deep lot offers outdoor living possibilities and potential for future expansion. This boulevard-style street features convenient pull-in parking! Nestled on one of the quiet blocks of Old Town, you are steps away from the Mt. Vernon Trail, Jones Point Park, the shops, and restaurants on King Street, and minutes from the National Airport, Metro, and major commuter routes. This is a must-see gem you don’t want to miss!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
