Stunning 1835 Flemish bond brick home is an architectural masterpiece, showcasing an exceptional level of craftsmanship and an unparalleled sense of history. From the moment you see the elegant exterior, you're transported to a bygone era, captivated by the meticulous restoration work that has preserved its timeless charm. Step inside and you'll be greeted by a wealth of original features - the gleaming heart of pine floors, ornate plaster moldings, soaring 12’-foot ceilings, and a grand double parlor that exudes refined sophistication. The towering windows flood the interior with natural light, while eight fireplaces with original mantels throughout the home lend a cozy, inviting ambiance. The stately dining room, enriched by a coffered ceiling, crystal chandelier and fireplace, offers an ideal setting for hosting dinner parties for friends and family. A beautifully appointed powder room sits across from the bar area to accommodate guests. The culinary enthusiast will delight in the renovated chef's kitchen complete with top-of-the-line appliances, chic coffee bar, hardwood floors, and an exceptional island with additional seating. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors that open to a delightful patio and garden offering an idyllic setting for outdoor entertaining and alfresco dining. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and three baths provide ample room for comfortable family living and the second-floor library provides a tranquil retreat for reading and relaxing. The primary suite exudes sophistication and comfort featuring a fireplace, dressing room with custom wardrobes, walk-in closet, and a luxurious marble bath. Two off-street parking spaces and a small garage offering convenient access and storage complete this historic gem.

It’s rare that a home with such rich history, distinctive architecture, and an exceptional location becomes available to the public. Today, you're in for a special treat--a chance to explore an extraordinary residence that blends American history, timeless craftsmanship and endless potential! Once the boyhood home of General Winfield Scott--the legendary general who served in the War of 1812, the Mexican-American War, and the Civil War--this remarkable home began its story in 1762 in Sussex County, Virginia, known then as The Mitchell House. In 1946, it found new life when Carl W. Porter, Fairfax County's Director of Public Works and a retired U. S. Navy Captain, along with his wife, Beatrice, carefully relocated it piece by piece to its stunning new site--a serene two-acre setting on the Potomac River, just below George Washington's Mount Vernon. They lovingly renamed it CARLBY! Washington’s 1793 map of the Mount Vernon Estate shows Carlby as “Field Number 1” and the water in front of the home as George Washington’s fishery. Set back from the road and only 200 feet from the water's edge, this secluded 2.18 acre property is approached by a graceful lengthy driveway which is perfectly situated to reflect the symmetry of the home and its outbuildings. This elegant residence follows the grand tradition of Southern plantation design--with a wide central hall and front and back doors perfectly aligned to invite cool river breezes. As you step inside with both doors open, the view of the water unfolds before you in breathtaking fashion. The riverside facade can be admired from the stately portico, reminiscent of Mount Vernon's grand lawn. Whether hosting gatherings or savoring tranquil mornings by the water, the setting offers breathtaking views, timeless serenity and radiant sunsets. With 151 feet of beautiful water frontage and a pier extending into the river, the property presents endless possibilities for relaxation and recreation, all surrounded by a natural landscape that serves as a thriving habitat for local wildlife. Inside, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. The first floor showcases original wide-plank pine floors, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and beautifully preserved moldings and paneling. To one side of the main hallway lies the grand living room, adorned with intricate wainscoting and elegant woodwork restored by the Porters themselves. Expansive nine-over-nine windows fill the space with natural light and frame sweeping river views. Across the hall, the formal dining room features a stately fireplace and a custom chandelier designed by Captain Porter and inspired by one found in George Mason's home at Gunston Hall. A cozy den with its own full bath offers the versatility of a first-floor bedroom; each of these rooms features a beautifully detailed period fireplace. The galley kitchen, half bath, laundry area and a private staircase leading to an upstairs room complete the main level. Upstairs, the owner's suite spans the full width of the house--a peaceful retreat with original floors, an elegant wood burning fireplace and an en-suite bath. With views of both the front lawn and the river, it captures the quiet grace of the home's 18th century origins. Two additional bedrooms, a full hall bath and custom built-in closets round out the upper level--each space filled with charm and history, from river views to cozy fireplaces. A detached double garage with upper-level storage, a historic smokehouse, complementary shed complete the outside structures on the property; all arranged with balance & purpose. Carlby is more than a home---it's a living piece of American heritage. A place where history, architecture and nature converge in perfect harmony. For historians, architects, preservations and lovers of nature who are looking for a waterfront, private retreat on over 2 acres of land, the possibilities are endless. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own something truly irreplaceable.

This charming estate is located at the end of a private drive on one of Alexandria's most sought-after streets. Featuring 1.37 landscaped acres, this home offers country estate privacy that is easily accessible to Old Town, Washington, DC, and Reagan National Airport. The 5,119 square foot main residence was designed as a spacious classic farmhouse, where every window frames the gardens and extensive lawns. Reimagined by a builder and gardener for their family, the home’s elegant custom architectural details include high ceilings up to twelve feet, centuries-old heart of pine floors and library built-ins, four fireplaces, seven bathrooms and three primary suites. The large kitchen with family/breakfast area includes two working areas with sinks and a cozy office. A first-floor primary suite has a dressing room, two full baths and walk-in closets. Steps away is a laundry/home keeping room with its own outside entrance. Several outbuildings are integral parts of the estate’s charm and unique character- a lovely guesthouse adjacent to the in-ground pool area, an oversized two-story garage with attic and four storage bays and a custom imported glasshouse from England. The setting of the property, its privacy and improvements, would make you think it was the Virginia countryside! The property's grounds feature several gardens, which were showcased during the national Garden Conservancy's 2025 Open Days event. Stately oaks, boxwoods, topiaries, rare conifers, shrubs and a woodland walk ensure year-round interest in the landscape of this legacy property
