This truly a one of kind property set on a half-acre lot in the Fort Hunt area of Alexandria, this bungalow offers a unique opportunity to own a property with deep historical roots in Alexandria and thoughtful modern updates. The land was originally part of George Washington’s River Farm, acquired by Washington in 1760 as part of his Mount Vernon holdings. It remained in the Washington family until 1869, and in 1859 it was sold to the Snowden family, who operated a dairy farm on the property through the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The current home was built in 1928 by a local farmer who owned a portion of the original estate.
