Looking for a home with timeless elegance? The 100-year-old property at 6108 Vernon Terrace, Alexandria, has proven that it’s up to the task. The home was built in 1926, and its classic design and historic touches give it undeniable charm.  

This property is in Alexandria’s Belle Haven neighborhood, on a lot of just over 7,500 square feet. It has six bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, for a total interior area of 3,496 square feet. It’s currently on the market for $1,995,000.
