Overview
Beautiful home tucked within the coveted Rosemont Historic District—just moments from Historic Old Town Alexandria—7 East Walnut Street is an expression of timeless craftsmanship and modern refinement. Originally built in 1914 as a quaint bungalow, this residence was meticulously reimagined in 2003 through comprehensive, custom rebuild by architect Thomas Canning resulting in the stately Craftsman home that exists today.
Thoughtfully expanded and reconstructed down to three original walls, the home now offers a gracious and flowing layout defined by architectural integrity and artisanal detail. A second level introduces three beautifully appointed bedrooms with soaring vaulted ceilings and two full baths, creating a serene and elevated private retreat.
At the heart of the home, a stunning great room with 9’3” ceilings serves as both a gathering space and a design centerpiece. Anchored by a hand-built fireplace crafted from authentic Virginia fieldstone, this space seamlessly connects to the kitchen and dining areas—ideal for both intimate evenings and sophisticated entertaining.
Every element of the home reflects a commitment to quality and authenticity. Rich Brazilian cherry hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by custom-designed and hand-crafted millwork, including intricate moldings, built-ins, AC returns, and illuminated display niches. The kitchen and dining areas are further enhanced by exquisite, hand-blown glass pendants sourced from artisans at Glen Echo Park, adding a subtle yet distinctive artistic touch.
Modern systems and infrastructure were comprehensively updated during the rebuild, including new electrical wiring and copper plumbing, HardiPlank siding, copper gutters, and Kolbe & Kolbe windows. Additional enhancements include a newer HVAC system (2017), updated hot water heater, integrated security lighting, professional landscaping, a full irrigation system and an updated full bathroom in the basement !
The home also embraces contemporary living with thoughtful features such as a dedicated 50-amp outlet for electric vehicle charging. Even the powder room reflects bespoke craftsmanship, showcasing a custom vessel sink by artisan David Norton of Round Hill, Virginia.
A rare offering that harmonizes historic character with modern luxury, 7 East Walnut Street, an exceptional opportunity to own a truly distinctive residence in one of Alexandria’s prestigious neighborhoods with a driveway !
The location is unparalleled, with walking distance to two Metro Stations ( King Street and Braddock Road stations), Historic Old Town, Del Ray, and plenty of shops and restaurants. There's also easy access to the Potomac Yard Bike Trail and the Hoofs Run Park and Greenway. Just minutes to Reagan National Airport, Washington, D.C and all that the greater Metro area has to offer!
