Listing details for 801 Fairfax St #133, Alexandria, VA 22314 : If you love Old Town but wish you had a little more room to enjoy the outdoors, 801 N Fairfax Street, Unit 133 is a rare find. This ground-floor 2-bedroom, 2-bath home has something you don't come across every day in Alexandria, a massive private patio that gives you your own little outdoor escape right in the city. This is the kind of patio you'll actually use. Set up an outdoor living area, invite friends over for summer happy hour, enjoy your coffee outside in the morning, or grab a blanket and a warm cup of cider when fall rolls around. With mature landscaping surrounding the space, it feels surprisingly tucked away while still being right in the middle of everything. Inside, the home feels just as special. Soaring ceilings and oversized windows give the living spaces a bright, open feel, while the modern kitchen keeps everything connected for cooking, entertaining, or just hanging out at home. The primary bedroom has a custom walk-in closet and a beautiful spa-like bath. The second bedroom and full bath are nicely sized too, whether you need space for guests, a roommate, or an office. And there are some pretty great perks that come with living here. Assigned garage parking means no circling Old Town looking for a spot, and the home also comes with two residential street parking permits for even more flexibility. When you want to get out of the apartment without actually going anywhere, head upstairs to the rooftop. The river views are spectacular, and there are grills and plenty of room to spread out with friends for a larger gathering. It's also a pretty amazing spot to watch the city fireworks! The community is pet-friendly too. Then there is the location, and this might be one of my favorite parts. The Potomac River and the bike and walking trails are only two blocks away. Directly across from the building you'll find a public tennis court, dog park, playground, and the Old Town North Farmers Market, so you really do have so much right outside your front door. For everyday life, Harris Teeter is about a five-minute walk and Trader Joe's is roughly ten minutes away. Grab coffee or dinner nearby at neighborhood favorites like Hank's Oyster Bar and Sisters Thai, head toward the Old Town waterfront, or spend the afternoon exploring the shops, restaurants, and cafés throughout Old Town. Oronoco Bay Park, Founders Park, and the Mount Vernon Trail are all close by too. Getting around couldn't be much easier. DASH bus stops are on both nearby corners, about a two-minute walk away, and DASH buses are fare-free throughout Alexandria. Braddock Road Metro is also nearby, with quick access to the GW Parkway, I-395, Route 1, and other major commuter routes. The location is especially convenient for military, government, and defense professionals, with easy access to the Pentagon, Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall, Fort Belvoir, Washington Navy Yard, Mark Center, and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling. Reagan National Airport, National Landing, Amazon HQ2, Crystal City, and Washington, D.C. are also just minutes away, making this an incredibly convenient home base whether you're heading to the office, the installation, or out of town for the weekend. Built in 2022, this home gives you the newer finishes and conveniences you want, but it's the combination of ground-floor living, incredible private outdoor space, and a location where you can walk to just about everything that really makes it stand out. Come see it in person, the patio alone might win you over.
