Looking for more than a box? This distinctive top-floor, end-unit residence at Harbor Terrace delivers the character, light, and flexibility that cookie-cutter condo layouts rarely offer. One of only six homes of its model, this inviting one-bedroom with loft features windows on three sides, a wood-burning fireplace, a skylight overlooking the living area, and a wonderfully private setting away from the busy street. Hardwood floors anchor the main living space, where natural light creates an easygoing setting for relaxing, entertaining, or working from home. Above, the open loft offers valuable bonus space for a dedicated office, creative studio, reading room, fitness area, or cozy retreat with its wood-burning fireplace...an especially compelling feature for today’s hybrid professional. The skylight adds a dramatic architectural element while bringing light into the heart of the home. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless-steel appliances. The layout offers the practicality of a one-bedroom home with the added versatility and visual interest of a loft, ideal for buyers who want a home with personality, not a standard floor plan. Set within Harbor Terrace’s nearly five-acre, garden-style community, this home enjoys a peaceful position near the landscaped interior courtyard. Mature trees, green space, a community gazebo, picnic areas, a wisteria-covered pergola, pavilion/patio space, and shared grills create a setting that feels removed from the city while remaining connected to it. Included are two off-street parking passes, plus a large, assigned storage unit. Live close to the best of North Old Town and the Potomac waterfront. The nearby Mount Vernon Trail makes it easy to walk, run, cycle, or enjoy dog walks along the river, while the DASH and Metrobus stop at the community entrance. Alexandria DASH is fare-free, and the home offers convenient access to Metro, Washington, D.C., Old Town, neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, grocery options, waterfront parks, theater, and tennis. Within Alexandria’s designated Old Town North Arts & Cultural District, the home is near the waterfront development along the Potomac River, including parks and mixed-use residential spaces. Harbor Terrace offers a pet-friendly, lock-and-go lifestyle with an in-unit washer/dryer, a dedicated storage unit, bicycle storage, fitness room, outdoor gathering spaces, and condo fees that include water and exterior building maintenance. A home for buyers seeking light, architectural interest, outdoor access, and an authentic North Old Town lifestyle—offered at $415,000.

OWNERS WILL PAY 3 MONTHS OF CONDO FEES BEFORE CLOSING. Welcome home to Harbor Terrace of Old Town Condominiums, located in northern Old Town Alexandria. This two levels spacious condo offers 2 bedrooms and 2 baths with 1,150 sq ft. Enjoy the privacy of two levels with enough space for all the occupants. Washer and dryer in the unit. Two bedrooms both w/ private entrance. The kitchen has been updated and offers lots of natural light. There are several good size closets.

The fitness room offers Life Fitness and Optima equipment, mats, dumbbells, an elliptical cross-trainer, and an upright Lifecycle bike. An Optima series dual adjustable pulley weight machine and an adjustable workout bench, maintained by the HOA, are also available. It offers a peaceful, neighborhood feel while being right in the path of Old Town North’s continued growth. The LOCATION is a major differentiator. Positioned between the Potomac River and the George Washington Memorial Parkway, the community connects directly to the GW bike path—linking you to DC, Mount Vernon, and beyond. Within a 10-minute walk, you’ll find restaurants, coffee shops, groceries, fitness studios, and everyday conveniences. For commuters, it doesn’t get easier: just over a mile to King Street, about a mile to both Potomac Yard and Braddock Road Metro stations, and approximately 10 minutes to Reagan National Airport. Alexandria’s free DASH bus stops nearby, and the Y11 Express provides direct weekday access to DC. With significant redevelopment underway in North Old Town—including the future Power Plant project—this is not just a home, but it could be a smart investment in a neighborhood on the rise. Bus stop is half-a-block away, and the Braddock Metro Station is less than a mile away.
