    What's special

    Tranquil wooded backdropCustom-designed open kitchenCustom wood plantation shuttersThermador appliancesFreestanding soaking tubCurbless custom glass showerLed backlit anti-fog mirrors
    28 Alexander Street is contemporary elegance! This meticulously renovated 3-bedroom, 3.5- bath townhome has been beautifully reimagined combining thoughtful design, top-of-the-line materials, and a tranquil wooded backdrop, with a glimpse of the Potomac River from the main- level balcony. Every level features natural ash hardwood floors with a wire-brush finish, complemented by dark chocolate stair railings for warm contrast. New Sierra Pacific Energy Star windows with invisible screens and glass doors topped by a Juliet half-round window with low-E argon glass bathe the interior in natural light and showcase tranquil treetop views. Architect Michael Beidler's interior plan opened the main level for seamless flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces, enhancing sightlines to the woods and maximizing natural light. The wooded backdrop creates a peaceful, private setting ideal for year‑round birdwatching and enjoying the surrounding nature. The custom-designed open kitchen is a true showpiece. A professional-grade stainless steel hood vents to the outside, complementing Thermador appliances, quartz countertops that extend into a striking quartz wall surround, and custom hardwood cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, pullout shelves, and trays. An expansive quartz waterfall island provides generous seating, abundant prep space, and a functional workspace with integrated charging outlets, ideal for cooking, casual dining, and entertaining in a modern, well-appointed kitchen. Relax or entertain on the new low-maintenance Trex deck, perfect for grilling, al fresco dining, and enjoying the peaceful natural surroundings. A half-bath on this level is convenient for guests. The primary suite is a calm retreat with vaulted ceilings, the signature half-round window above French doors, and a generous sleeping area oriented toward the lush trees. The new spa-like bath features Porcelanosa tile, radiant heated floors, and all-new plumbing. Features include a handsome curbless custom glass shower, freestanding soaking tub, and LED backlit anti-fog mirrors that add both function and luxury. A spacious guest bedroom and renovated bath complete this level. The top-floor third bedroom offers flexibility with a built-in Murphy bed, custom library shelving with integrated lighting, and an adjacent office area. Two windows in this area provide an excellent, light-filled workspace and reading area. The entry level family room offers a charcoal slate floor, a custom mantle above the gas fireplace, handsome moldings, and a built- in wine refrigerator, creating an inviting secondary living or media space with direct access to the outdoors. New Trex landing and stairs lead to the brick patio, perfect for low-maintenance outdoor living, while offering peaceful views of the wooded backdrop. Additional upgrades include custom wood plantation shutters, a new Haas garage door with integrated security camera, and a Tesla EV charger. This sophisticated, turn-key home boasts a rare combination of exceptional design, quality finishes, and a serene setting within easy reach of Old Town’s fine restaurants and boutiques.
