Prescott condominiums are located in the heart of Old Town Alexandria near the crossings of Cameron, Henry and North Fayette streets. The design of Prescott condos recreates early 1900 architecture in the form of Queen Ann style of row houses. Prescott offers an interesting contrast of exteriors that harken back more than a century and the best of modern interior design.

That design includes a designer kitchen with stainless steel appliances, 42 inch Maple cabinets and granite countertops. The units feature a nine foot ceiling in all living areas with thick hardwood flooring in the kitchen, foyer, living and dining rooms. The windows already have designer blinds installed. The foyer, living and dining rooms are nicely trimmed with two-piece crown molding. Closets feature wood shelving and all doors have brushed chrome hardware.

Old Town is a wonderful place to live, but in 1900 homes weren't pre-wired for cable, Internet and ceiling fans. The Prescott has this and recessed lighting in kitchen and dining room. Many units have spacious walk-in closets.

The bathrooms have ceramic tile in all baths with Corian vanity countertops with integral Corian sink and Kohler plumbing fixtures. Of course, the washer and dryer are in the unit and the rooms bedrooms have wall-to-wall carpeting.

Units have aluminum clad, double hung, tilt in, insulated windows with simulated true divided lights. The rooftop terrace with patio furniture and gas grill is a great way to get away and enjoy views of Old Town. Parking is always at a premium in Old Town but these units have underground parking space included with controlled access to garage, elevators and lobby.
