a traditional Washington rowhouse on a shaded street, close to everything
Location: Washington, District of Columbia, USA (Marina/L'Enfant Plaza - 6 Blocks to Nat'l Mall, Smithsonian)
Accommodations: Townhouse, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)
Family-friendly 3BR close to everything!
Relax at the end of your day in a townhouse that a former Supreme Court Chief Justice once called home. Three comfy bedrooms give everyone lots of room. A cook’s kitchen and separate dining room, plus a patio, make this a real home away from home!
You won’t find other digs so right-in-the-middle-of-it-all: Stroll to a Metro hub, the National Mall, or the new Nationals baseball stadium.
Just one block south is Washington's marina. From there, it's a close, walk east along the Potomac River to the Jefferson Memorial and Tidal Basin paddleboats, the Holocaust Museum, the FDR Memorial, the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, and the Washington Monument.
Heading north, it's just 6 blocks to the Smithsonian Air & Space and other museums along the National Mall.
To the southwest are Nationals Park, and the National Defense University. Also, Fort Leslie McNair's grassy (and public!) expanses, where military bands regularly perform on summer evenings.
Just across the Potomac River, due south, are Haines Point's golf course and park.
To get around hassle-free, hop on the subway at L'Enfant Plaza - four blocks away. Or ride the $1 DC Circulator bus - which stops directly in front of your DC home base.
One off-street parking space + reasonable cleaning included. Extra parking space available.
Owners are long-time DC residents and neighbors, and are happy to answer questions and share tips for visitors. Se habla español.
