The Address

Property Location

About 1072 N Royal St

The townhouse at 1072 N Royal Street was built in 1977 and offers 1,137 square feet across two bedrooms and two full baths. The home is part of an HOA-governed community that manages exterior maintenance, insurance, lawn care, sewer, water, snow removal, and trash on behalf of owners. A private garage space with access to electric vehicle charging stations conveys with the purchase, along with an assigned parking space — a meaningful advantage in Old Town’s constrained parking environment.

Old Town Alexandria is one of the most historically intact urban neighborhoods in the Washington metro area, characterized by its 18th- and 19th-century architecture, brick-paved streets, and a walkable commercial corridor along King Street. N Royal Street runs parallel to the waterfront grid, positioning this home within easy reach of the Potomac River parks, the King Street retail and dining district, and the broader network of Old Town’s public spaces. The neighborhood’s compact scale and pedestrian infrastructure make daily errands, dining, and recreation accessible without a car.

Living on N Royal Street means access to Old Town’s full range of daily amenities on foot — local cafes, independent restaurants, neighborhood grocers, and the waterfront park system are all within the walkable core. The King Street Metro station provides direct service into DC, and Reagan National Airport is a short drive or ride-share away, making this location practical for frequent travelers. The HOA’s coverage of exterior maintenance and grounds care allows owners to focus on the neighborhood experience rather than property upkeep.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

Key details about the residence, building, and location to help you evaluate this opportunity.

The HOA covers exterior building maintenance, insurance, lawn maintenance, management, parking fees, reserve funds, sewer, snow removal, trash, and water. This is a notably comprehensive package that significantly reduces the out-of-pocket maintenance obligations typically associated with townhouse ownership.

Yes, the garage space conveys with the purchase and is accompanied by an assigned parking space as well. The community also offers access to electric vehicle charging stations, which is an uncommon amenity in Old Town Alexandria’s older building stock. Buyers should confirm the specific EV charging access terms with the HOA.
The King Street Metro station, served by the Blue and Yellow Lines, is the closest Metro access point to this address and is reachable on foot from the Old Town grid. The station provides direct service into downtown DC, the Pentagon, and Reagan National Airport. Buyers who commute into the District or travel frequently will find this transit access a practical asset.
N Royal Street sits within the walkable core of Old Town Alexandria, placing daily needs — groceries, dining, coffee, and parks — within reach on foot.

The HOA structure includes reserve funds as part of its coverage, which is a positive indicator of financial planning within the community.
