New Construction Homes in Alexandria
Alexandria blends cobblestone streets and waterfront dining with exciting new construction — from townhome communities to ultra-luxury estate homes. Here's what's being built.
Why Alexandria for New Construction?
Alexandria offers something unique in Northern Virginia: the historic character of Old Town — with its cobblestone streets, waterfront restaurants, and boutique shopping — combined with a new-construction pipeline that's genuinely exciting. From townhomes with rooftop terraces to $4.8M estate homes, Alexandria's new-construction market spans the full spectrum.
Tri Pointe Homes is making the biggest splash with Eisenhower Pointe — two communities totaling over 220 new townhomes with the Cameron (from the high $700s) and Hensley models. NV Homes' Upland Park adds 92 townhomes with rear-loading garages. And JBG Smith's Potomac Yard development promises 750 new homes near the Metro — one of the region's most transformative projects.
At the luxury end, Clarens Street's six estate homes at $4M–$4.8M represent the kind of new construction that rarely becomes available in Alexandria — museum-quality finishes in a historic city with D.C. at your doorstep.
