A True Williamsburg Colonial—Reimagined for Modern Life Step into the timeless elegance of early American architecture with this meticulously crafted Williamsburg inspired colonial (Robert Nicolson House), scaled up for contemporary comfort and enhanced with a subsequent two-story addition. Nestled at the rear of prestigious Maple Tree Court cul-de-sac in Alexandria City, this distinctive home blends historical design with gracious proportions and thoughtful upgrades. The symmetrical facade with dormer windows, Hardie Plank siding, classic red door, and period shutters evoke the charm of Colonial Williamsburg—yet the home is anything but dated. Inside, enjoy 9-foot ceilings on the main level, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, and masterful trim work including plaster triple crown molding and medallions, shadow boxes, and chair rails. Designed for elegant living, the expansive formal rooms include a 300 sq. ft. living room, a 225 sq. ft. dining room, and a 165 sq. ft. library—ideal for entertaining and holiday celebrations, or quiet reflection. The kitchen offers space for both everyday living and event-scale catering, featuring updated appliances and a sunny breakfast room with bay window. The family room thoughtfully placed adjacent to the kitchen and back staircase—with a second fireplace and access to the large rear yard—offers casual comfort and connects via the main level hall to a glassed-in porch/sunroom and breezeway leading to an oversized 2-car garage. Need a creative retreat? The garage attic is ready to become your artist’s studio or writing haven. Upstairs, find four generous bedrooms, including a primary suite with two closets and a private bath, a secondary bedroom with a bonus study/playroom, and multiple hall baths. The lower level features a third fireplace and awaits your custom finishing. (media center, gym, at home office, +++).
