About this property

Stunning Home on Capitol Hill

Enjoy a peaceful stay in my historic home with a newly renovated interior, just a few blocks from the National Mall, Eastern Market, and Capitol Building. I live in the heart of Capitol Hill, a stunning (and safe) neighborhood surrounded by some of the best restaurants, markets, and transportation hubs in the city. You will have exclusive use of the unit in this listing, but I will also be on the property (in a separate unit with a separate entrance and no interior connection).

This is a beautiful residence in a fantastic location with outstanding guest reviews. But before you book, please note the following to ensure my home is a good fit: (1) This rental is only for guests looking for a relatively quiet stay. (2) Parties and events of any size are strictly prohibited and quiet hours commence at 10PM. (3) Maximum occupancy (including the outdoor space) is limited at all times to the number of individuals on your reservation (no visitors) unless you've obtained prior approval. (4) The staircase is somewhat steep. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

This elegant two-story unit has two bedrooms and two and a half baths. There is also a queen size air mattress, for a total of up to six guests. The space is ideal for working remotely, with incredibly fast Fios WiFi (speeds up to 1000 Mbps) and two comfortable and bright office areas. The deck, large kitchen, and in-unit washer/dryer also make the home perfect for extended stays, which are discounted.

The unit is fully equipped:
• Premium sheets, blankets, towels, toiletries, and laundry supplies
• In-unit washer and dryer
• Fully stocked kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, and much more
• Brand new stainless steel appliances: microwave, toaster, refrigerator, gas stove, and oven
• Nespresso machine, OXO coffee maker, French press, and an assortment of teas
• Queen beds with premium mattresses and bedding in both bedrooms
• Two full bathrooms (one with a tub) on the second floor; half bath on first floor
• 65" QLED TV in the living room and LCD TV in the master, both with YouTubeTV (cable) and access to Netflix, Prime, AppleTV, and HBO accounts
• Extremely cozy outdoor space with string lights, bench, and chairs
• Hair dryer, iron, and clothes steamer
• Central air with smart thermostat (EcoBee)
• Two hour street parking during the week; unlimited street parking on nights and weekends. Longer term parking in the area can be located and reserved using sites such as SpotHero.

Guests do not have unrestricted access to the entire property but do have exclusive use of the unit described and photographed in this listing.

Property was nice and clean. Great location. Please add the door code to towards the beginning of the house rules as it was 3/4 of the way into the document and not easily found. There are a lot NO's and can't do's which I understand, but the constant reminder that the owner lives & works below is too much. Thank your guests for staying, rather then telling them NO.
