Kirk is a fourth-generation Washingtonian whose family has lived on Capitol Hill since the late 1800s, and where he continues to live today with his wife and two children. Kirk's Great-Grandmother, Margaret, purchased this 1890 Victorian home In 1905 to entice one of her two daughters to raise her own family in the neighborhood. Kirk's Great Aunt, Nell, and her husband, John, raised their 12 children in this home.

In 2008 at the behest of Kirk's 82-year-old cousin, Kirk's family purchased the house from relatives who had owned or lived in the house since 1905, and then they spent over two years meticulously restoring and renovating the home, blending old-world Victorian charm and ambiance with new world appliances and technology.

Today, Kirk's family, now the fifth generation of Washingtonians, are honored to offer you the opportunity of experiencing residential living in the newly updated guesthouse, right in the heart of our Nation's Capitol, at the Historic Eastern Market on Capitol Hill!

Wonderful location!
The location could not be more convenient for getting around with the Metro and the owner provides a parking pass for the street. You can walk to any amenity you might need and the home is comfortable. The kitchen could use better basic stocking, the TV needs up-dating (screen fading), but if you walk to get a bite, you can see the Capital dome in the distance. How amazing. :)

We loved our 6 day stay here! The location is perfect-just a half block from the metro and Trader Joes. It's in a very charming neighborhood we loved walking around. The owner was incredibly accommodating and very easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Definitely Recommend
This is a great place to stay in Washington. The location is very close to a metro station providing quick access to all the major attractions. There are also several restaurants within 1-2 blocks of the property and a Trader Joe's grocery store. The property was clean, comfortable and a welcome place to return to after long days of walking and sightseeing.

Perfect getaway for our family!
This lovely apartment in the Eastern Market neighborhood of Capitol Hill was the perfect place for a weekend getaway. The apartment was cool, clean and quiet during a hot weekend in DC. The neighborhood was amazing, with everything we needed (restaurants, shopping, the Metro, weekend outdoor market) only steps from the door. We hope to come back someday! Thank you for a great weekend!

Great location and great neighborhood
We chose this property due to ease of access to the mall and were surprised to find how much the neighborhood had to offer. There are great local shops as well as a Trader Joes should you chose to dine in. Will definitely be looking to stay here again in the future.

The suite was a block away from the metro to easily get to and from all of the sites. Lots of good restaurants and stores within walking distance. The neighborhood is great - very cute, clean and safe. The suite is as perfect for us and the property manager was very responsive with great customer service. Highly recommend!

A fantastic place to stay.
This property could not be better located. Parking was easy and once I parked I never drove again until we left. Bus and Metro are literally steps away from the front door. The property was 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with a pull out sofa. It was perfect for me, my wife, and 3 kids. We had a very slight issue on arrival and Kirk had it fixed ASAP. Nice host and wonderful stay.

Perfect location with all you need for a great DC stay
Eastern Market Suites is in the perfect location! Close to everything in a nice neighborhood. The flat has all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay and was perfect for our family of 4! Kirk was a great host! Made sure we had all the information needed before checking in, included a parking pass so we could park on the street. We left the car and traveled by metro and Uber! Convenient to everywhere and so much better than a hotel! Thank you helping to make our trip to DC memorable!

PERFECT Location
The location of this rental could not be better. Literally within a block of amazing restaurants and a quick Uber or train to downtown. The rental was great too; comfortable beds, cozy living room, and large island in the kitchen! Kirk was readily available and was super helpful, even on Christmas day! Would definitely stay here again! Our only feedback is to update the listing to show the futon is not in one of the bedrooms but in the living room.

Perfect fall break rental
We loved this apartment. It is quiet and a very short walk to the metro, multiple grocery stores, and many other shops and restaurants. The new playground by the metro station was a lifesaver for us as we were traveling with two young boys who need to get energy out. Kirk kindly provided a parking pass that let us park right outside.
