About This Home

As of March 2025

Welcome to Mt. Ida, an exquisite single-family home in the heart of Alexandria, VA. This historic home was built in 1808 by Charles Alexander, Jr. - a sixth generation from John Alexander, after whom Alexandria was named. Spanning over 6,000 square feet, this detached residence offers an unparalleled blend of luxury and comfort. With five spacious bedrooms and four full and three half baths, this home is designed to accommodate both intimate family living and grand entertaining.

Step inside to discover architectural elegance featuring built-ins, columns, crown and decorative moldings, and exposed brick. The high ceilings and eastern exposure flood the home with natural light, accentuated by floor-to-ceiling and oversized windows with tasteful treatments. The ambiance is further enhanced by chandeliers and recessed lighting throughout.

The chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, boasting a breakfast bar, marble counters, and premium stainless steel appliances, including a gas stove and side-by-side refrigerator. The open kitchen design flows seamlessly into an eat-in area and formal dining room.

Relax in the expansive living spaces, with six working fireplaces, a library/den, a music room, and a home office. The primary suite is a sanctuary featuring a walk-in closet, exercise area, ensuite with separate shower and soaking tub, and windowed bathroom.

Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a private roof deck, back and front yards, patio, and porch. Enjoy panoramic river and garden views from every angle. Additional amenities include a basement, an attached two-car garage, a circular driveway with ample parking, and a security system,

Experience luxury living at its finest in this Alexandria gem.
