About this property

Storybook cottage on Leesburg's most historic block — walk to everything

Stay on the most storied block in Historic Leesburg. This 100-year-old cottage — once the neighborhood candy store — sits two doors from the house where Robert E. Lee held his 1862 war council and across from Leesburg's famously haunted Eliza House. History buffs, this is your front door.
Inside, the cottage is fully renovated and sparkling clean: a full kitchen, two queen bedrooms, fast Wi-Fi, and a charming side porch and patio made for morning coffee or an evening glass of Virginia wine. Covered carport parking plus a dedicated second spot — a rarity downtown.
Step outside and you're two blocks from the Courthouse and inside Leesburg's walkable historic district: acclaimed restaurants, wine bars, boutique shops, the W&OD Trail, and the October ghost tours that stop right on our street. Loudoun's wine country and Morven Park are minutes away; Dulles is 30 minutes.
We're local, responsive, and serious about spotless turnovers. Come experience Leesburg like a neighbor.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Kyle Hall

Host profile image
Welcome, friends — I'm Kyle, and I'm so glad you're here. I'm an entrepreneur who's spent the last decade building brands, but hosting is the work I find most rewarding: there's nothing like handing someone the keys to a place you've poured care into. I've never met a stranger, I'm nearby and quick to respond, and my only real goal is that you walk in, exhale, and feel at home. The Cottage on King is a special little place on a genuinely remarkable block — I can't wait for you to experience it. Cheers!

Why they chose this property

The block chose me. This stretch of North King Street is one of the most storied in Virginia — the cottage sits two doors from a home where a Civil War council shaped American history, across from Leesburg's most famously haunted house, and a short stroll from where the Declaration of Independence was once hidden for safekeeping. But day to day, it's simpler than that: you can walk out the front door to morning coffee, browse boutiques all afternoon, and end the night at a wine bar without ever moving your car. Historic charm with everything at your doorstep — that combination is rare, and I knew it the first time I walked the street.

What makes this property unique

The cottage has lived more lives than most homes get: it's been a dance studio and the neighborhood grocery and candy store, and it's remembered as the only shop in the area to extend credit to the Black community during segregation. Today it's fully renovated — modern comforts, hotel-grade cleanliness, fast Wi-Fi — but the character is original, and the framed history inside tells the whole story of the house and its remarkable neighbors. Add covered parking (a true luxury downtown) and a walk-to-everything location, and it's not just a place to stay in Leesburg — it's a piece of it.
