Lloyd House

A large, historic brick house with green shutters and white trim sits on a street corner, partially obscured by leafless trees. Two cars are parked in front, and a white picket fence lines one side of the house.

This eighteenth-century home provides a great historical and elegant setting for weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners and other events. Constructed around 1796-1797 by John Wise, a prominent entrepreneur in the early town who also constructed Gadsby’s Tavern (1785), Lloyd House is one of the best examples of Alexandria’s late eighteenth-century Georgian style architecture.

The first floor and garden of Lloyd House are available for rentals and can accommodate up to 125 people for a reception or 100 people seated.
