Alexandria Square is an established garden-style condominium community in the Del Ray area of Alexandria, Virginia. Located along Duncan Avenue and Dewitt Avenue, the community offers compact residences in classic low-rise buildings near Mount Vernon Avenue, neighborhood parks, public transportation and the Braddock Road Metro station.
Alexandria Square is located within the independent City of Alexandria in ZIP code 22301. The buildings were originally constructed around 1940 and reflect the brick and masonry garden-apartment architecture commonly found throughout Del Ray and neighboring sections of Alexandria.
Individual residences are owned as condominiums rather than rentals within a single apartment complex. Because Alexandria Square is a relatively small community, available units may appear infrequently.
Alexandria Square residences are generally compact, efficient homes suited to buyers seeking condominium ownership near Del Ray’s shops, restaurants and transportation options. Recorded unit sizes vary, with many studio and one-bedroom layouts measuring approximately 430 to 740 square feet.
Typical floor plans may include a combined living and dining area, separate kitchen, full bathroom and bedroom or sleeping area. Updated condos may feature renovated kitchens, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, refinished hardwood floors, upgraded bathrooms and improved storage.
Because the buildings date to the 1940s, the condition of windows, electrical systems, plumbing, heating and cooling equipment can vary by unit. Buyers should review both the residence’s improvements and the association’s responsibility for shared building systems.
Alexandria Square owners pay a condominium fee that supports community operations. Depending on the current budget and governing documents, the fee may cover exterior building maintenance, common-area landscaping, master insurance, management, reserve contributions, water, sewer or trash removal.
Covered services and fee amounts can change. Buyers should examine the resale certificate, operating budget, reserve study, insurance coverage and recent meeting minutes before purchasing. These documents can reveal planned projects, special assessments and the association’s financial condition.
Parking arrangements may include community spaces, permits or nearby street parking, depending on the unit and current association rules. Buyers should verify whether an assigned space conveys and review guest-parking procedures.
Pet policies may include limits on the number, size or type of animals permitted. Storage, laundry arrangements and bicycle policies can also vary by building or unit. All current rules should be confirmed through the condominium documents rather than relying on a previous listing.
Mount Vernon Avenue is the commercial center of Del Ray, offering restaurants, cafés, markets, fitness studios and locally owned businesses. Seasonal events and community activities contribute to the neighborhood’s active street life.
Additional shopping and dining are available in Potomac Yard, Old Town Alexandria and the nearby Arlandria area. Grocery stores, pharmacies and everyday services can be reached throughout northern Alexandria.
Nearby green spaces include Mount Jefferson Park and Greenway, Eugene Simpson Stadium Park and Potomac Yard Park. Residents can access walking paths, playgrounds, athletic facilities and connections toward regional cycling routes.
The Braddock Road Metro station provides Blue and Yellow Line service within the broader Del Ray area. The Potomac Yard–VT Metro station offers another option north of the community. DASH buses and Metrobus routes operate along nearby corridors.
Route 1, Braddock Road and the George Washington Memorial Parkway connect Alexandria Square with Old Town, Arlington, Reagan National Airport and Washington, D.C. Walking and transit distances should be confirmed from the specific building address.
Alexandria Square is served by Alexandria City Public Schools. Attendance boundaries and program assignments can change, so buyers should verify current school information using the unit’s exact address.
