About this property

Historic DC rowhome - five minutes from the White House

The historic DC row home is perfect for families and small groups looking for a vacation (or longer term) rental in the heart of Washington. Your accommodations are less than 1 mile from the White House and a short walk from the bars and eateries of 14th Street NW. Parking is available ($14.50 per night) though you shouldn't need to drive in our safe and walkable neighborhood. Please be aware that this grande dame is a work in progress, and not all rooms have been updated. The kitchen for example is functional but dated and some rooms have cosmetic issues such as damaged paint. If this doesn't bother you - welcome! If you are looking for this scale of accommodations in our neighborhood, in immaculate updated condition - swipe left. Please note also that this is not a party house. Strict no events / no parties policy is required out of respect for our neighbors. Unauthorized parties will be shut down hopefully before our neighbors call the police.

Relax close to everything in this Brownstone near Dupont Circle

Easy access to everything in this lovely neighborhood of brownstones a 10 min walk to Dupont Circle metro stop, mere 3 blocks from a bike stop. With a sunny balcony, living room of couches, bathroom on all three levels, and plenty of space. Yes, as specified it is undergoing/needing some wall repair etc. That did not inhibit us from enjoying our time in the space. We did not cook much at all so the small kitchen with very few decent pots and pans was noted but again not an issue for the three of us. It had all the essentials of microwave, toaster, coffee percolator, large fridge, drawer of canvas grocery bags, we even used the intsapot :) Remodeled bathrooms, desks for working on each level, and a key keeper outside for easy group coming/going. Plenty of towels and pillows, laundry upstairs, and beautiful trees out the windows. Very quiet neighborhood, particularly considering how close we are to restaurants/Safeway/transit etc. One thing of note for owner is a very slow shower drain on top floor. I don't know when I will be back next, but I will stay here again and suggest it to any one I know :)

pleasant stay, exactly as advertised

This property is precisely what it says in the listing: a spacious and comfortable (but not immaculate) home in a can't-be-beat neighborhood. Like the owner warned, if peeling paint bothers you... find another place. If not, stay here and enjoy! Easy walking distance to the metro and tons of great restaurants. We were surprised by how large the home was for only having 3 bedrooms! Will definitely keep this place bookmarked for future stays.

Great Townhome, close to everything

We came for the national bike summit and this location was perfectly located! We rented bikes and rode all over DC. This property is well located for biking and walking, plus a great taco place, great breakfast nearby and a fun, vibrant neighborhood. The house is just fabulous, a work in progress for sure, but the history here, the squeaky floors, tidy patio, historical moldings, radiant heat...it was the DC experience we have always wanted!

Family Vacation--OK...BUT...

The house was in a good neighborhood, but had the most uncomfortable furniture. For a 3 story 3 bedroom house, there was only one TV (on floor one) in the living room and it only worked 50% of the time due to internet issues. There was an electric fan in 2 bedrooms, but only one worked. The AC worked on floors 2 & 3, but you had to go to floor 3 every 6-7 hours and turn it back on or the temp went back up to 78 degrees. Floor 1 had a window AC unit that worked very well. There were no directions about what to do with the trash, linens, or towels upon checkout like other places I've stayed in. There were no suggestions for local restaurants or shopping. I wouldn't stay here again, but we had a good week enjoying the sights of DC.

Great location!

This place was perfect for me and my kids ages 25, 23, and 16 for a 3 night stay. Approximately 1 mile walk to the White House, 2 miles to Union Station. Plenty of restaurants, CVS, and a market all within a few blocks. The parking space in the back of the unit is a huge bonus!!! There is no overnight parking anywhere close. If I have any complaints, it’s the erotic art. Some may like it, I found it in very poor taste. Overall, I’d stay here again without hesitation.

Great location, needs attention

Spacious townhouse in a great location. Renovations are required and apparently ongoing. Flaking paint, a broken chair, loose curtain rods. Living area is comfortable, kitchen very small.

Great! but..

Great location, plenty of beds. I was aware of the condition of the house and was totally fine with it, that being said it was a bit more than what was described. The light in the kitchen doesnt work at all- seems like the switch is broken. Unfortunately the same issue is in the kitchen- the lights dont work. so two connected rooms with no lights... after the sun went down I had to use a flashlight on my phone to walk through half of the first floor. I feel that theres a difference between things not being updated and not working at all.

Great neighborhood, cool house

We enjoyed exploring DC with this beautiful row home as our base. The neighborhood is gorgeous and we felt very comfortable walking to the Mall and back. There are lots of cool restaurants, coffee shops, and stores close by. The nights were pretty quiet for being in the city. The house itself is incredible - three stories, with beautiful floors and some nice updates. The bathroom on the topmost floor is fully redone, and the one on the second is mostly redone. The kitchen is in rough shape, but it’s usable. The fridge is huge and there are plenty of utensils and plates and such. The nitpicky stuff: - when we came in, there were two pieces of erotic art on the wall in the dining room that we were not prepared for our young children to see… just a heads up for others who may be traveling with young kiddos. - There is plaster peeling off some of the walls from what appears to be past water damage. In a house that old, I’d assume there’s lead paint. So maybe not a great idea for families with mobile babies - The toaster oven is finicky and the oven’s knobs are worn to where you can’t see the temp setting. We weren’t cooking a ton, so it wasn’t a huge deal, but it may be for others who plan to be in the kitchen more. - The public water in DC tastes horrible - Lots of stairs may be a challenge for older guests or managing little ones - Come prepared with extra toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags. We had just enough but were rationing by our last morning!

Adorable Townhouse in Great Location

My young adult kids and I stayed here while visiting family for Thanksgiving. The house is spacious and adorable, with plenty of room and well-thought-out, everything you could need. For example, there are even spare reading glasses near the books in the living room. The picturesque neighborhood is quiet but within a 5-10 minute walk to lots of activity; restaurants, bars, shops, sights and the metro. Two grocery stores are within walking distance as well. We brought multipleThanksgiving side dishes to our family gathering which I cooked in the kitchen. The kitchen looks small, but, as the owner notes, is very functional and is packed with everything needed. We did have a car. The parking is right behind the house, which is excellent off street parking, a rare amenity in DC.
