Mapping Places To Live Near Hank's Oyster Bar In Old Town

View as Map

Welcome to Bar Crawl Living where we find some worthy domiciles within stumbling distance of a neighborhood hotspot. If there's a place you want us to scope out, leave a comment or send word to our tipline.

This week's BCL takes us across the river to get messy with oysters and beer. Hank's Oyster Bar in Old Town Alexandria also has territory in the District proper, but for those looking for the Colonial Williamsburg vibe without...well, schlepping to Billyburg, then this is the best bet. Located in a nabe that's truly a blast from the past, the Old Town housing stock is all about Federal and Colonial styles that really embrace antiquity. As a matter of fact, a few listings on this map come from the 1700s. So grab a brew, shuck some delicious oysters (careful with the blade), and take a walk down history's well-worn road. Cheers.

Coming to us from the 1790s, this 3 bedroom detached home is looking for a modern owner. The electricity system has been updated, so no one needs to worry about wandering with dangerous wax candles to the modern kitchen. With a generous backyard that has plenty of entertaining potential, this listing has been on the market for about a month and probably won't be sitting still for too long.

This home has a home inside out it. Well, it's actually a teepee, but it should be roomy enough for a little tyke to hang out in. For the adults, this "stunning" townhouse close to the King Street Metro has a great kitchen, a "tranquil courtyard", 3 bedrooms and marble tiles. It's really the perfect patriotic home.

For a buyer looking for prestige, this listing shouts it out: "Outstanding opportunity to acquire this fabulous property located on one of Old Town's most desirable blocks". Built in the old timey days (aka 1780 when America was only 4 years old), this home is divided into 5 units but is looking for someone to give it some TLC and make it a home for only one family.

How many fireplaces do you need? What's that? Eleven? Perfect. Because this manse has 11 fireplaces to keep its new owner toasty warm. And while this immaculate estate evokes yesteryear, the interior, especially the kitchen, is definitely 21st century. The only issue remaining is who will pick up this Old Town treasure.
