At 400 Madison Street #1804, Old Town isn’t somewhere you have to drive to. You’re already there. Set high above the city on the 18th floor of Alexandria House, this condo puts you in one of Old Town’s most convenient locations, with restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, parks, the waterfront, and everyday essentials all within easy reach. But before you head out, step onto your own wraparound balcony and take in the view. Accessible from every room in the condo, this incredible outdoor space offers sweeping views of the Potomac River, Masonic Temple, Washington Monument, and beyond. Morning coffee, an evening outside, or simply watching the city change with the seasons—it’s a view you won’t tire of. Inside, Unit #1804 is being sold as-is and is ready for its next owner to make it their own. Bring your ideas, update at your own pace, and create a home that reflects your style while starting with something you simply cannot renovate into a property: the location and the view. And this location makes everyday life remarkably easy. Trader Joe’s is just steps away, Harris Teeter is right across the street, and King Street, with its restaurants, shops, cafés, and everything else Old Town has to offer, is within easy reach. Braddock Road Metro Station is nearby when you want to leave the cars at home, while the GW Parkway, Route 1, Washington, D.C., and the rest of Northern Virginia are easily accessible. Reagan National Airport is also just minutes away, making everything from a morning flight to an out-of-town weekend that much simpler. When you’re home, Alexandria House offers amenities that make city living even easier, including a rooftop pool with panoramic views, outdoor spaces, fitness amenities, and a 24-hour front desk. A designated storage unit within the building gives you additional space for the things you want nearby but don’t need every day. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, an Old Town pied-à-terre, or simply a home where you can leave the cars behind more often, #1804 gives you the opportunity to create a space of your own in a location that’s already hard to improve upon. Because here, getting around Old Town is less about planning where you’re going and more about deciding which direction you feel like heading.
