About this property

Stunning Renovated DC Home

Welcome to Authentic DC Urban Living
This beautifully renovated 1,384 sq ft rowhouse in vibrant Columbia Heights offers the real Washington DC experience - not a sanitized tourist bubble, but genuine city living with character and charm.

The Space
Our south-facing home features 4 bedrooms (1 King, 2 Queens, 1 Double), 2 full baths, and sleeps up to 8 in beds (9 including the couch). The open-concept main floor flows seamlessly from living room to kitchen, while upstairs bedrooms provide peaceful retreats.
Recent full 2019 renovations include new appliances, luxury vinyl floors and modern plumbing & electrical upgrades.


2025 Upgrades Include:
- Brand new HVAC system for perfect climate control
- New designer backyard oasis with fire pit, outdoor seating, & BBQ
- Fresh bathroom renovations & newly installed full bath downstairs

Your Urban Outdoor Spaces
The magic happens outside: Our extended front porch is your box seat to taking in DC's colorful neighborhood life - watch locals gather, sip wine at sunset, smoke what's legal, and feel the city's pulse.

The private backyard hideaway offers an intimate escape with fire pit, grill, and designer furnishings. Both spaces welcome whatever helps you unwind (what's legal is good with us).

The Real Columbia Heights
Let’s be honest: This is urban DC, not Georgetown. Our diverse, energetic neighborhood pulses with authentic city life. You’ll hear sirens, see real DC characters, experience real Washington. But you're also steps from incredible Latin restaurants, trendy 14th Street, Howard University, and easy Metro access to everywhere. You're less than a mile's walk from what is considered DC’s tourist areas.

What to Expect:
✓ A genuine DC neighborhood - lively, diverse, real
✓ City sounds (we’re urban, not suburban)
✓ Professional cleaning between every guest
✓ Responsive local team for any needs
✓ Free street parking (first-come basis)
✓ Walk to Metro, restaurants, nightlife

House Rules:
- Check-in: 4 PM / Check-out: 11 AM
- NO indoor smoking (You’re welcome to smoke what’s legal on the porch & backyard)
- Pets welcome with fee
- Respect our neighbors - they make this place special

Perfect For:
Travelers seeking authentic experiences over sterile hotels. Those who appreciate urban energy, cultural diversity, and want to live like a local - not just visit monuments.

If you need perfect silence and suburban calm, we’re honestly not your match. But if you want to feel DC’s heartbeat while enjoying modern comforts and unique outdoor spaces? Welcome home.

Getting Around:
Under a mile to Columbia Heights Metro (Green/Yellow lines). Buses at the corner. Uber/Lyft always available.

Walk to DuPont, Adams Morgan, U Street nightlife.

Nice property inside

Inside the property is lovely, clean and comfortable. Difficult time trying to get into the property as key did not unlock second entryway door. Property is not in a good area/neighborhood which was loud at all hours of the night during the week. Parking spaces are rare and difficult to find near the property even with a parking pass.

mostly a miss

Often these properties are hit or miss. This was a miss. From the delivery boxes blocking the entry when you first walk in, to the kitchen which was filthy, to garbage left behind from workes (I assume), to the bathroom that was under construction (which we were never notified of), to the construction materials left laying about, to the drywall dust on everything, it was a huge disappointment, especially for the price. It's also a noisy street and you hear everything. The only thing halfway decent was the upstairs so we did stay there to sleep.

Pleasant

The house was very clean and well-stocked, close to attractions, and the owner was helpful and responsive. Our main problem was that the AC wouldn’t kick in, so we were too warm all night. Also, one of the beds must’ve been a fold out or cot - didn’t check but didn’t sleep well. The big bewaswas comf
