About this property

Home base for your DC adventures - near fun, great food, and public transport.

Access the best of DC’s sights with a short walk to the Petworth Metro, the 14th street bus, or hop on a scooter or e-bike stationed on our block. When you return home, go back in time with our “Class of 1981” Galaga/Ms Pacman arcade game and a little table tennis, or fast forward with Gig speed internet. A five-minute walk takes you to Rue Café for coffee, Safeway or Yes! for groceries, or Rock Creek Park...the Smithsonian National Zoo is a short bike ride away. For dinner choose from neighborhood Mexican, Vietnamese, Salvadoran, Laotian, Persian, Malaysian, BBQ or “fancy” southern fried chicken. This spacious and clean lower-level apartment in a house has 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, full size washer/dryer, a full kitchen and private entrance accessible with a code.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
