This Old Town Alexandria row house renovation transformed a narrow, compartmentalized interior into a bright, highly functional living space designed for everyday living and entertaining. The Alexandria, VA home remodel reimagined the original galley kitchen as the heart of the home, improving flow and connection between the kitchen, dining, and living areas for modern urban living.

Custom cabinetry defines the space and maximizes storage, a key feature of this custom kitchen renovation. The design includes a built-in dining nook that adds function without sacrificing openness. A generous island anchors the kitchen with a hidden, below-countertop induction cooking solution. Layered lighting, refined millwork, and thoughtfully selected materials create a timeless aesthetic that respects the character of this historic Old Town Alexandria home.

The result is a cohesive, light-filled interior that feels both polished and practical. This historic rowhouse remodel in Alexandria, VA, demonstrates how thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship can dramatically enhance a compact urban home’s day-to-day performance while preserving its architectural integrity.
