The location was great and the free parking was a bonus. It felt like a very safe neighborhood and you could easily walk to sites on Capitol Hill. The house was clean and the owner was easy to reach when we had a question. We highly recommend this rental and would stay here again!

We're so pleased that you had a good visit! You are stellar guests. Come back anytime.
Converted carriage house in a charming neighborhood; Quiet location just a couple of blocks from the east end of the mall; Very comfortable bed. We had a very enjoyable stay
Being in the neighborhood was perfect for dog walks and biking. The city is such a great place for biking around and being able to park our car off street and leave it there was amazing. Accommodations were good, large shower with good pressure. Friendly residents and safe, fast internet. AC in both rooms was a plus.
This Capitol Hill carriage house is one of our favorite places we have ever stayed in D.C.! The sleeping arrangements were perfect, with two different rooms - one for us and one for our adult daughter. The courtyard was a fun addition for atmosphere. The kitchen was well-stocked and the bathroom was spacious and clean. Our hosts were just delightful and so helpful. The location can't be beat - just a block from the Supreme Court building. And the bonus of free parking was unbelievable. Truly a delight and we will be returning to this property!

So glad that you enjoyed the apartment, Lesley! Please come again. Hilary & Marguerite
This place is heavenly. It is hard to convey in the photos the quiet beauty of the private garden assigned to that small house. The small house is tastefully decorated with antique furnishings. Me, my wife and our two boys (6 and 9) had plenty of space. The bed and sofas are very comfortable. There was always a lot to do, as all the main museums are within walking distance. Restaurants in the Capital Hill/Barracks Row neighborhood were impressively good and affordable. Eastern Market was fun. It has a great bookstore. It is very charming and peaceful neighborhood. We did not need a car.

This was our second time staying on this property (we previously rented the garden apartment). The carriage house was perfect for myself and my daughter. The location can’t be beat!

About the host
Hosted by Katy Kelly
The Kelly family is the second family to live in the main house, which was built in 1876 by Maj. Samuel Walker for his family.
Why they chose this property
One of the premier properties on Capitol Hill, the carriage house, the stable and the east side of this Victorian house were completed in 1876. By 1886, Maj. Samuel Walker had more money and ten children so he added the west side of the house, the third floor and the porches in the style of Charles Eastlake, the English architect who simplified Victorian architecture and flattened its rounded gingerbread. All of the first floor ceilings—except the hall—are tin and so is a bedroom ceiling on the second floor.
What makes this property unique
One of the great pleasures of the main house is that it remains much as it was when first built. Modernizing was done slowly, with care and caution. On the chance that electricity was just a fad, Major Walker only electrified every other arm of the chandeliers in the living room and the study and left the others as gas jets. The gaslights still work--and so does the electricity.
