Description

Rich in history and beautifully updated for modern living, 3408 wessynton way offers a rare chance to own a piece of the mount vernon story. known locally as “the home place,” this property once belonged to the prominent gibbs family and was originally built in the 1790s for a mount vernon estate manager before being extensively remodeled for the first time in the 1920s (see photos). today, it’s one of the few surviving homes with direct ties to the area’s earliest post-washington-era inhabitants, offering not only timeless charm but deep historical roots.

set on a large and private lot cultivated by a master gardener, the grounds are a true sanctuary—framed by mature flowering shrubs, specimen trees, and perennial beds designed for beauty in every season. a wide, covered veranda at the back of the home invites outdoor living and entertaining, with peaceful views of the surrounding landscape and garden pathways that feel like your own secret retreat.

inside, the home has been thoughtfully overhauled over the last year with major upgrades while preserving its classic character. you’ll find a brand new kitchen, refinished hardwood floors, updated plumbing and electrical, and reimagined spaces that blend traditional warmth with modern function. the floor plan offers dual staircases, a rare four bedrooms and three full bathrooms upstairs, flexible gathering spaces, multiple spacious bedrooms and office options, and charming original architectural details throughout.

located in the desirable wessynton neighborhood just minutes from the potomac river, mount vernon estate, and old town alexandria, this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a legacy property that’s been lovingly stewarded into its next chapter.
