Why Buy in Alexandria?

🚇

Metro Access

Blue and Yellow line stations connect Alexandria directly to DC, Arlington, and Reagan National Airport.

🏛️

Historic Old Town

One of the most walkable, charming neighborhoods on the East Coast — restaurants, waterfront, and boutiques steps away.

📈

Strong Appreciation

Alexandria home values have consistently appreciated, driven by proximity to DC and limited housing supply.

🍽️

Vibrant Culture

Award-winning dining, farmers markets, festivals, and a tight-knit community feel that sets Alexandria apart.

Alexandria Neighborhoods & Price Ranges

Approximate price ranges based on recent market activity. Prices vary by home size, condition, and location.

Old Town Alexandria

$700,000 – $2,000,000+

Historic rowhouses, luxury condos, and single-family homes on tree-lined streets steps from the Potomac waterfront. The most prestigious — and most walkable — address in Alexandria.

Del Ray

$600,000 – $1,100,000

Artsy, eclectic neighborhood known for its main street, Mount Vernon Ave. Bungalows, craftsman homes, and a strong sense of community. Highly competitive with multiple offers common.

Rosemont & Seminary Hill

$550,000 – $900,000

Quiet residential neighborhoods with mature trees and a suburban feel, yet minutes from Old Town and the King St Metro. Great for families and commuters.

Potomac Yard & Eisenhower

$400,000 – $750,000

Newer townhomes and condos near the Potomac Yard Metro (Blue/Yellow). Modern finishes, walkability, and access to the Virginia Tech Innovation Campus make this area one to watch.

North Alexandria & Arlandria

$450,000 – $800,000

A diverse, rapidly appreciating area bordering Arlington. Good value relative to Old Town, with easy access to DC and strong rental demand for investors.

Cameron Station & South Alex

$500,000 – $850,000

Planned community with townhomes and condos, amenities, and walkability. South Alexandria offers more entry-level price points and is popular with first-time buyers.
