Sobre esta propriedade

Duvall House - George Washington ate here! In the heart of Old Town Alexandria.

An 18th Century Landmark, the subject of books, accolades and tours through the centuries.

In the heart of Old Town Alexandria, George Washington was literally celebrated here in 1783 upon his triumphant return home to Mount Vernon following his victory over the British monarchy in the Revolutionary War. A party of epic proportions, including a 13 cannon salute in adjacent Market Square (now home to City Hall) was hosted at William Duvall’s Tavern to honor the Commander in Chief of the Continental Army.

Please visit our Facebook page by searching on “Duvall House” to discover more on the amazing provenance of this historically significant property.

Originally home to Duvall's Tavern; also served as the 1st Bank of Alexandria. Once the residence of Charles Lee, 3rd Attorney General, it has been restored to its original glory. High ceilings, chandeliers, archways, bright and airy floor plan, walled garden, and modern conveniences. Replete with antiques and original art!

Host your wedding, shower, reunion, or other special occasion!!! Inquire about event fees, catering and rental services. Separate contract and security deposit required depending on the size and scope of the affair.

Just over 4,000 sq-ft with 12 total rooms - double parlor, office, and den on first floor; kitchen, dining room, and expansive (450 sq-ft), front-to-back ballroom on 2nd floor.

One spacious bedroom on the 1st floor, two on 3rd - each featuring a private, full en-suite bathroom. 4 queen size beds in total. Option to set up the ballroom with 1 or 2 queen-size air mattresses as well.

Top-rated, Baby Europa crib available for our guests’ use, including linens. Suitable for infants and toddlers. Please advise in advance how you would prefer it configured and in which room set up.

Guests have complete access to the entire house. Make yourself at home! Do note that we store/stack tables and chairs in the 2nd floor ballroom, to avoid potential damage to the staircase that could occur if we constantly bring them up and down before/after special events.

Keyless entry (unique code provided on arrival).

Owners live locally and are available to address any needs by text or email as they arise. Let us know if you would like any pre-stocking of food, wine, or other special requests upon your arrival.

Old Town Alexandria is a historic seaport and a peaceful village just a few miles from downtown DC. The local amenities are plentiful and the access to downtown Washington is a cinch. Some of the best restaurants in the National Capital Region are just around the corner. If you are into live music, theater, or art galleries, there are several venues within walking distance.

Duvall House is just two blocks from the Potomac River boardwalk which features a water taxi to Georgetown, the Wharf, National Harbor and MGM Casino, and the Washington Nats ballpark.

Located directly across from the front entrance to historic Alexandria City Hall, adjacent to iconic Ivy Lane, and just steps from dozens of shops and restaurants.

Free King Street trolley to D.C.- area metro, Uber/Lyft service, scooters, and rental bikes readily available. Best walking conditions on the planet!

The several photos depicting George Washington visiting Duvall House are the work of the official interpreter of the General for the City of Alexandria - Brian Hilton. Brian is available for hire for our guests for up to 3 hours. He is a professional historian and the experience is one of a kind and highly recommended!!!

Public parking on same block under Alexandria City Hall Plaza as well as other local lots. Following is a link to all available public parking facilities in Old Town including hours, rates, and contact information.

Prospective guests are asked to keep in mind that this home is nearly 250 years old and so it has its quirks and nuances. There are a couple of very low doorways and so those over 6 feet need to be cautious and aware of those. Likewise, the bedrooms on the 3rd floor have sloped ceilings and so be mindful when standing up in the gables. Lastly, we maintain a monthly comprehensive professional pest service, but on rare occasions you may encounter a bug or even a mouse (particularly in the Winter as they escape the cold). We have had zero negative experiences and/or reviews in more than four years of hosting, but want to be entirely truthful and transparent to our visitors who may be sensitive to such things.

Wonderful Historic Stay

Our family absolutely loved our stay at Duvall House! The home was spacious enough for all 8 of us and had modern and spacious bathrooms and kitchen. The home is beautiful and filled with antiques and reproductions that make it easy to envision the past. Old Town Alexandria is a charming location that is filled with cute shops and eateries a short walk away from the house. Yet it is also easy to go into DC to see the sights there. I highly recommend Duvall House for those who love history! (For a fun activity, count all the pictures of George Washington in the house!)

Absolutely wonderful place to have our wedding.

I cannot say enough fantastic things about our time at the Duvall House. The house was the perfect location for our small wedding in the back patio, and the lodging was perfect for our families who came in from out of town. The house itself is chock full of great talking points, ambiance, and the location cannot be beat just blocks away from the main part of Old Town. And the host Chris is the best host you could ask for, helping to set the house up appropriately for our special day. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Having grown up in Old Town, staying at Duvall House literally made us all feel perfectly at home. Chris our Host is amazing; so very kind, helpful, and attentive. Our stay was perfect in every way!

Charming Comfortable Clean

If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable and charming home in the heart of Old Town and minutes from DC, look no further. Tucked behind City Hall and steps from vibrant King Street, the house offers a quiet place to relax and sleep yet is only a few minutes walk to charming shops and restaurants and a very short drive to DC museums. The host could not be more gracious and easy to work with.

We had a wonderful stay at the Duvall House! This historic gem truly takes you back in time, commemorating the legacy of George Washington. The experience of staying here was unparalleled - it felt like stepping into a piece of living history. The ambiance was charming and inviting, perfect for our small working group retreat. The house is well-equipped for gatherings, and the cozy atmosphere made it ideal for intimate dinners. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience!

Memories were made!

This stay was our best ever! The location was so close to everything. DC was just a 12 minute uber, Reagan airport only 10 min. Old Town Alexandria was so fun, live music, wonderful restaurants and the waterfront. Our hose Chris was so welcoming! The house was immaculate, the amenities plentiful, and kitchen well appointed. He was so kind. When storms threatened our flight home, he offered to let us stay a few more days. I can't say enough about his hospitality or the beautiful historic home. Thanks Chris!

Outstanding place for visiting DC, Alexandria

Outstanding property and host. Great spot for visiting DC. A block away from the trolley stop that will take you to the Metro. Runs 11am to 11pm little over a mile walk if trolley isn’t running. Alexandria is also a great spot to visit in itself, coffee shops, restaurants, shopping etc. also the Alexandria Riverfront. The home is comfortable, clean and well kept. Would highly recommend.

We are history buffs and this couldn’t have been a better property. Both for the location and for the house itself. We felt like we were going back in time but with modern conveniences. The location saved us money on car rental as we didn’t need one as well. The hosts were responsive and helped in so many ways. We will be back.

A Fun Experience

Staying at the Duvall Historic Home was a fun experience for our family of five. Despite its old-world feeling, the place is very clean, beds are comfortable, showers were hot and there was plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen had everything we needed although we didn’t cook—just brought in carry out. The location is perfect for exploring Old Town Alexandria and when we went into Washington DC it was a quick 15-minute drive. We rented a car and parked in a parking garage very close to the property when we needed to park overnight. Highly recommend Lavender Moon cupcakes down the street—amazing!!

Revolutionary Era/Modern Conveniences

From start to finish the hosts were accommodating with all requests. Duvall House displays an interesting collection of historical artwork, furniture and decor. The AC cooled the premises even though the temperature reached high 90s. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was within walking distance to the pier. We have stayed in several other historic homes but none of them had the same mix of history and modern “necessities”. The home was unusually quiet for a historical home. I highly recommend it to families with students studying American history. We hope to return and hold a luncheon in the ballroom.

Great place for anything

I cannot express my appreciation to chris m. First he was extremely responsive and accommodating. Having colleagues fly in from Europe to work on a project, I needed a place where everyone could stay, comfortably, work during the day and go out to experience historical Alexandria. The Duval was perfect, plenty of room to work together and still have areas for privacy. Everyone loved it , we were very productive and enjoyed ourselves, too. There were so many small details that were taken care of, down to the welcome basket of treats and wine! Thank you! We will definitely be taking advantage of this wonderful location again soon

Friends Reunion

The house was breathtaking...there were so many beautiful pictures and period pieces it was hard to take them all in. The house was very well appointed and your every need taken care of. All the beds were comfy and warm, the kitchen had more than enough stocked essentials. We loved sitting arounnd the beautiful copper topped table in the kitchen for morning coffee and late night drinks. We stayed in many rental properties and Chris has been by far the most helpful and attentive host we have ever had. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone! Thank you Chris for making our say so comfortable and enjoyable.

Wedding Weekend

We brought the family to VA/MD for a weekend wedding. The venue was at Oxon Hill Manor which was a short 15min ride. Many of the guests were at Hotel Indigo just a short walk from the house which provided us easy access to all the events around the wedding. The house was in immaculate with many historic pieces throughout. We travelled with our 2 adult children and the property was more than comfortable for 4. We were only a block or 2 from the Potomac, shops and fantastic restaurant options as well. There was plenty of parking in the area but we used Uber to easily travel to all destinations. The Old Town neighborhood was a terrific place to visit and Chris’ property was the perfect spot for us. We plan to return and highly recommend it for others

Absolutely Perfect!

What an amazing property! Chris was a FANTASTIC host. The house was perfect for my family that came into town visiting me for a military celebration. The location is so safe and with street parking right in front, made it easy to load/unload, especially with a baby. The space was immaculately clean and pet friendly. Even though it was historic, it had all the modern amenities we could ever want, including a much appreciated air conditioning. Also, the ground floor bedroom and bath for my father was perfect. The property is within walking distance of EVERYTHING in Alexandria and it was so nice not to have to worry about driving. We ate at a lovely Italian restaurant only a block away and then my family explored the riverfront. We also took advantage of being so close to the Torpedo factory and another restaurant right on the riverfront with outdoor dining that was also dog friendly. Chris went above and beyond with a lovely welcome basket, informative historic book, and facilitated two street parking passes. We also used parking in the garages that were extremely close/reasonably priced. Chris even made sure the sleeping arrangements were as we had requested (two additional blow up beds and even a crib provided). It was stress free not having to worry about linens and toweling. When we accidentally left a necklace (he noticed first), Chris reached out immediately and mailed it. Thank you for making such a memorable stay for my family and I would absolutely book again!

Thankful for a great Thanksgiving

This was an incredible property for our Thanksgiving celebration. Chris was a wonderful host setting up the tables in advance, answering my multiple questions in advance quickly and even stopped by to help me when I couldn't figure out the TV. We prepared the feast onsite in the kitchen, and served our sit down meal for 19 in the ballroom. Pre-dinner cocktail hours were hosted in the main level parlors which spilled out to a lovely courtyard. Everyone enjoyed the space, and the exuberant nods to George Washington, and has asked that we repeat our celebration at Duvall House next year. And the location is perfect. You can walk to a wide variety of restaurants, coffee shops, and the weekly Farmers market within a few blocks. We recommend this is a perfect venue for events, family reunions and any visit to Alexandria and the Nations Capital.
