About this property

Mount Pleasant Surprise! Kid & Family Friendly!

Summary:
Head to Washington, D.C. and enjoy all the comforts of home in our gorgeous apartment just perfect for small families, couples or business travelers. Set in the lower level of a historic, beautifully renovated (in 2021) rowhouse in the heart of popular Mount Pleasant, this one bedroom apartment will be your little oasis in the city!

The Space:
There is super easy access to Columbia Heights Metro and buses (including the DC Circulator) around the corner (just 0.7 mile away) to access the mall & monuments, and local neighborhood scene.

If you are bringing kids, or furry friends we are family and pet friendly. Rock creek hiking trails, river and parks are all close by, its just 0.7 miles to the Smithsonian Zoo for a fun day out to remember! 

Even though this is a lower level apartment the clever design and private side entrance  makes the space feel spacious and light. The BRAND new, custom-designed interior space is clean, minimal and uncluttered; equipped with everything you might need to make your stay comfortable. 80% of the property's power is also generated by a state of the art solar panel system! A true gem in the City!

 Guests can expect;
- Sparkling clean accommodations
- Private entrance
- 2 TV`s ; Living room 32" Samsung; Bedroom 40" Samsung - both equipped with Roku streaming devices
- A bright, large bedroom with a queen sized bed
- Comfortable living space with a queen sized sofa bed
- 1 Full bathroom
- Full kitchen
- Laptop friendly workspace
- Convenient Location
- Excellent Wifi (Xfinity) And more!

Guest Access:
The apartment is not shared with anyone else and is a completely separate unit with its own entrance.

There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

The Neighborhood:
Located close to Rock Creek Park, the Zoo and downtown DC, Mount Pleasant's rich historical connection to D.C. has made it a diverse, cultured and community-driven neighborhood. Complete with it's own main street, beautiful historic rowhomes, tree-lined streets, guests can enjoy a small town feel in the heart of our Nation's Capitol. 

Nearby Columbia Heights neighborhood has a plethora of dining, shopping and entertainment options! With excellent proximity to public transportation, you are not limited to the area, but you may not want to leave!

With family owned shops intermingled with national retailers so you could get lost in, any shopper will find something up their alley! Stroll the mural lined streets and take in a show at the Tivoli Theater in lovely Columbia Heights!

We are a stone’s throw from some of DC’s trendiest areas; The ever lively 14th Street Corridor is a great area and has something for everyone; bars, restaurants, galleries, boutiques, coffee shops, music venues, and vintage stores.

The U St Corridor which houses some of the best nightlife in the District is also a short distance further south from the apartment - the amazing music, food, and drink scene is a great way to spend an evening, and soak up the DC experience.

Getting Around:
The closest metro station is Columbia Heights Station, a 14 minute walk. The H4 or H8 bus can take you there directly in 10 mins. We are also just over a mile from the Woodley Park-Zoo Metro Station. Guests can walk there in about 25/30 minutes, or the DC Circulator bus can take you there directly in about 20 mins. The stop is located at Mount Pleasant St and Irving St. 
The S2 bus can take you directly to the White House & National Mall in under 30 minutes.

We want you to make the most of your stay, so we've partnered with DC’s city tour company See DC Today to help ensure an amazing visit, at the best rate possible! Sit back and relax as the finest, most highly-trained and knowledgeable guides take you through the city, to soak up the surrounding history.

Just as described.

The apartment was clean, upscale, and full of thoughtful amenities. The photos depict a lovely space, and the reality was even better. The location was walking distance to Elle, a local restaurant, serving a great breakfast and designer coffees. It is also open for dinner.

Excellent place in Mt Pleasant

This is a very comfortable, clean and modern one-bedroom basement apartment in an ideal location in the Mt Pleasant neighborhood. It is on a quiet street, with nice light, new appliances, good AC, a short walk to cafes and excellent restaurants, a 10 minute walk to the metro in one direction and to Rock Creek Park in another. It is perfect for a couple and we hope to stay again on our next visit to DC.

Enjoyed our stay

We spent some time in Washington DC with family and friends. The apartment was in a perfect location of the city and on a quiet shady street. We will definitely stay again when we come back.
