    Welcome to 1226 Prince Street, a distinguished 2-unit property with parking, located in charming Old Town Alexandria. This commercially-zoned property is an amazing opportunity for an owner to live in one unit and rent the other, or for investors to rent the entire building. Originally built in 1870, each unit has been thoughtfully renovated to provide the comfort of modern conveniences while retaining the original charm of a classic Old Town property. Both units of this exquisite property enjoy beautiful original heart pine floors, spectacular natural light, magnificently updated kitchens and bathrooms, private in-unit washers and dryers, and luxury finishes, fixtures and appliances throughout. Unit 1 is accessed on the main level, and includes one bedroom + den and a full bathroom with custom fixtures, a beautiful mosaic tile floor and gorgeous subway tile in the walk-in shower. The chef's kitchen offers a large island, a dedicated seating area, and luxury stainless appliances including a Liebherr refrigerator and Bluestar gas range with an overhead hood vent. The kitchen spills into a sunken living area with oversized windows to overlook the private patio and garden which is exclusively available to Unit 1. You'll also appreciate having a cozy lower level den that works wonderfully as a guest bedroom, bonus family room, or potential home office, along with a utility room for storage, and a stacked washer and dryer. Unit 2 is just as marvelous, and provides a spacious 1-bedroom unit with soaring ceilings, and a sensational kitchen with its own stainless appliances including a Blomberg gas range, generous island with bar seating, and a pantry closet. The sun-drenched living area provides 10 foot ceilings, and offers a sunlit corner nook allowing the perfect space for a home office. The spacious bedroom is well-positioned in the rear of the unit and adjacent to the gorgeously appointed full bathroom, which also includes the unit's laundry closet and a separate linen closet. The rear parking space is large enough for at least one car, and is just past the fenced in patio area. Incredibly located within one block of King Street, and only a short walk to the King Street Metro and VRE/Amtrak Station, Whole Foods, and all of the shops, restaurants, and charm that Old Town has to offer!
