Rosemont

The neighborhood was originally designed to offer a peaceful residential setting.

Welcome to Rosemont

Alexandria's first neighborhood
 
Some neighborhoods have history. Rosemont is history. As Alexandria's first planned residential expansion, Rosemont has been charming its residents since 1908, when the Alexandria Realty Company carved out an ambitious 84-acre, 450-home community that drew investors all the way from Philadelphia. A company representative even traveled to New York in 1909 just to secure the installation of street lamps. A small detail tells you everything about the care and vision that went into building this neighborhood from day one. Rosemont's first home sold for $3,750. Today, it's one of the most coveted addresses in all of Alexandria, and it's not hard to see why.
 
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the neighborhood was originally designed to offer a peaceful residential setting with convenient access to the Washington, Alexandria, and Mount Vernon Electric Railway. That same balance still defines Rosemont today. With Old Town Alexandria and Del Ray just minutes away, residents enjoy access to some of the area’s best dining, shopping, and entertainment while coming home to a quiet, established community. Washington, DC is also an easy commute, making Rosemont especially appealing for those seeking both charm and convenience.
 

Rosemont Real Estate Market

Rosemont is one of Alexandria’s most desired neighborhoods, where well-maintained homes rarely stay on the market long. The housing stock reflects its early 20th-century origins, with a mix of Colonial Revival homes, bungalows, and American Foursquare-style residences, along with select Cape Cods and thoughtfully expanded properties.
 
Many homes retain original architectural details while incorporating modern updates, creating a balance of character and functionality. Over time, some lots were subdivided, adding to the variety of home sizes and styles found throughout the neighborhood. This architectural diversity, combined with Rosemont’s location and historic designation, continues to drive strong demand. Contact The Patterson Group to explore current opportunities.

  • A tight-knit, welcoming community with a true small-town feel
  • Steps from the dining and shopping of Old Town and Del Ray

Local Lifestyle

Life in Rosemont has a rhythm that feels both relaxed and connected. Mornings are quiet and unhurried, with neighbors greeting each other, kids walking to school, and a sense of familiarity that defines the neighborhood.
 
Residents take pride in preserving the character of their homes and community, and it shows in the care given to both. Evenings often include a walk through the neighborhood or a stop at a favorite local spot, while weekends are spent exploring nearby Old Town, Del Ray, or simply enjoying time at home.
 

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Rosemont’s location places it between two of Alexandria’s most vibrant destinations. Old Town Alexandria and Del Ray are both just minutes away, offering an exceptional mix of restaurants, boutiques, and local favorites.
 
Neighborhood staples like Landini Brothers, Evening Star Cafe, Cheesetique, Ada's on the River, and BARCA Pier & Wine Bar are all easily accessible.
 
Closer to home, Grape + Bean serves as a neighborhood favorite, offering a warm, welcoming atmosphere that has made it a go-to gathering spot for residents.
 

Things to Do

Rosemont’s historic character makes simply walking through the neighborhood an experience in itself, with each block offering a glimpse into its early 20th-century origins.
 
Community events are a cornerstone of life here. Annual traditions like the Fourth of July celebration at Naomi Brooks Elementary and the neighborhood Turkey Trot bring residents together year after year. Nearby, landmarks such as George Washington Masonic National Memorial serve as both a visual anchor and a gathering place for events and celebrations.
 
With Old Town’s waterfront, the Torpedo Factory Art Center, and Del Ray’s festivals all just minutes away, residents are never far from something to do.
