The ultimate riverfront sanctuary where set and setting are everything.
After a scenic drive down a secluded, one-mile wooded road, you’ll arrive at a secluded riverfront estate directly across from George Washington’s historic Mt. Vernon. While located just 40 minutes from the bustle of Downtown DC and Old Town Alexandria, the River House feels worlds apart—a true sanctuary where the only neighbors you’ll hear are the local wildlife.
The Space
This five-bedroom estate is designed for those who appreciate unobstructed views and effortless luxury. Whether you're hosting a family dinner in the formal dining area or sinking into the oversized tufted couch in the living room, the Potomac River remains your constant backdrop.
Five Plush Bedrooms: Well-appointed with premium linens for a restorative night’s sleep.
Wellness & Play: Stay active with provided light workout equipment, or lean into total relaxation.
The "River House" View: Watch maritime traffic drift past the Virginia shoreline from nearly every room in the house.
Outdoor Living
The grounds are designed to immerse you in the natural beauty of the Potomac:
Morning Melodies: Wake up to Bald Eagles perched in the towering pines. There is a fire pit and 100 + acres of surrounding woodlands to explore.
Sunset Dining: Fire up the outdoor BBQ for a waterfront meal as the sky turns gold.
Evening Rituals: Gather around the outdoor fire pit or opt for a session in our private barrel sauna (available upon request) for the ultimate detox.
Why we love it:
There are few places on the East Coast where you can enjoy this level of privacy and historical significance while being less than an hour from the nation's capital.
We can arrange to have the house cleaned daily and to have a six person barrel sauna brought in for enjoyment.
We also have a 24' center console de-commissioned US Navy center console that can be chartered for river adventures and monument tours. These extras can be discussed on a case by case basis.
