Discover Urban Charm in Southeast DC

Welcome to a globally inspired retreat in the vibrant heart of Southeast Washington, DC. This is a neighborhood with spirit—layered, lived-in, and full of real city rhythm. Yes, you'll hear the sounds of urban life and feel the pulse of a historic African American community—but that's part of its magic. Nestled on a quiet, community-minded block with welcoming neighbors, this stylish, pet-friendly home offers comfort, culture, and a true sense of place.

What You’ll Love:

• Secure Parking + Easy Access: Private gated parking in the rear via alleyway and ample street parking out front offer flexibility for drivers.

• 2 Bedrooms + Flexible Sleeping: Rest easy in the serene main bedroom with a queen bed and infant setup. The cozy basement offers a double bed, and there's a queen air mattress for extra guests.

• Culturally Rich Interiors: From curated African art to plush seating and a Smart TV, every detail speaks to comfort and global design.

• Fully Equipped Home Office: The lower-level workspace includes an ergonomic setup—ideal for creatives and remote workers alike.

• Chef-Ready Kitchen: Cook up your favorites with stainless steel appliances, curated spices, and a touch of DC flavor.

• Spa-Inspired Bathrooms: Enjoy fresh towels, elegant finishes, and luxe toiletries for a hotel-quality experience.

• Urban Outdoor Escape: Sway in the hammock on the jasmine-lined back deck, pick herbs from the garden, sip coffee on the front porch, or gather for al fresco meals on the private patio.

• Family + Pet Friendly: Thoughtfully stocked for little ones and four-legged friends, with room to relax, play, and feel at home.

Come for the culture, stay for the comfort. This isn’t just a stay—it’s a Southeast DC story waiting to be lived.
Secure parking in the rear, accessible via a gated alleyway, plus additional street parking available in front of the home.

Two full bathrooms stocked with fresh towels and spa-inspired toiletries.

About the host

Hosted by Lavon Sajona

Host profile image
I was born in Ohio, but have traveled and lived internationally. My goal as a host is to showcase my art and the community here in S.E DC. So far, I have hosted a range of guests and enjoy meeting and engaging with them. I find it exciting.

Why they chose this property

I love it here. Southeast DC unfairly has a poor reputation but I find it to be a real community here. I feel safe and secure living here.

What makes this property unique

My space is eclectic and cannot be reproduced. I designed and decorated it to evoke an emotion and positive vibration and feel. I hope that you enjoy it.
