About this property

Upscale DuPont-Kalorama, 2 KINGS/1 Queen+Private Entry+Driveway Parking Option!

*** Please reach out for daily rates and for availability as my calendar may be open even when it shows that it's closed***

Historic 3-bedroom (2 KINGS, 1 Queen ), 2-bathroom home with a PRIVATE entrance, master en-suite bath, dining room, kitchen, PRIVATE courtyard and back garden and RARE driveway parking option.

Situated on the 1st floor of a 5-family townhouse, with an emphasis on comfortable furnishings, organic amenities and excellent customer service.

I am an experienced host who has been awarded Premier Host Status on VRBO.

I provide guests the same five-star touches that I look for when I travel: lodging located in a gorgeous upscale neighborhood, safety, cleanliness, high-speed Internet, comfortable furnishings, and upscale linens, towels, mattresses, and kitchenware.

Spacious home rests on a quiet tree-lined street in one of the safest, most preferred areas of DC. We are mingled among beautiful mansions, embassies and presidential dwellings.

The space is renovated and has 1800 square feet of indoor living area, featuring high ceilings, tall windows and original French doors. Enhancing those quarters are two private outdoor areas: the courtyard for dining alfresco and the patio for conversation around the back garden.

For extra convenience, there is a washer-and-dryer available for guest use.

Comfortable contemporary and antique furnishings are accented by eclectic decor. You’ll find the kitchen well-stocked. The master bedroom nicely sized, with an organic king mattress and en-suite bath. The garden bedroom is even larger, with a king mattress and French doors leading to the back garden. The third bedroom is small and rustic, yet the glass ceiling gives you the thrill of gazing at the stars from bed.

Steps from our door you will find a corner market and a dry cleaner. Just a few blocks beyond you'll enjoy restaurants, cafes, salons, theater and shopping.

The starting-monthly-discounted-rate is listed on this website.
Price is seasonal and is based on 3 lodgers.
Please reach out for seasonal monthly and daily rates.
Driveway parking is available and can be added to your quote, should you require it.

Note: The furnishings are constantly evolving, including the Grateful Dead memorabilia.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great place

The property was in a fantastic location, and well-maintained. If you don’t mind sharing a roof/ceiling/wall with someone this property as ideal. I loved the convenience of the store downstairs, and the proximity to getting around DC. The owners were very responsive. Note, there is no television! Wi-Fi work perfectly fine

Great Place

The house is exactly as presented in the photos. It was VERY clean, which was nice. The neighborhood is upscale with two small groceries a short walk away. Lots of fun local restaurants with outdoor dining nearby. Coming back to a quiet house in a nice neighborhood was a great escape for our family after a long day of doing crowded tourist things. Short walk to the Metro, but also a cheap Uber ride back if we were tired of walking. It was nice to give our college age son his own room to stretch out and sleep late. Owner was very responsive and wanted to make sure we had a great experience. I would stay here again!

Clean comfortable home

We stayed over the Christmas holiday. Only had one small issue with parking but we were able to reach Gloria right away and she was happy to help. The home is spacious, has very comfortable beds, and is only a short walk away to the train. The neighborhood felt very safe even at night as we would walk back from the train. I would suggest guest bring an eye mask if they prefer a dark room. Having rented many homes on each of our holidays, my only suggestion to the homeowner would be offering a list of what is available in the kitchen. It is a rather limited kitchen and I was making breakfast and dinner almost daily. I would have brought a bit more from home if I'd known what was and wasn't there. i would highly recommend the home and would return if we were to come back to DC.

Terrific location

The manager was very sensitive about us not upsetting her neighbors. A fine place but guests will need to be mindful of noise. Not a place if one is looking for a place to entertain others.

Goood location on a quiet street, but close to DuPont Circle; responsive landlord; very nice towels and linens; cute garden. Not a problem for us, but if you have younger kids, no TV.

Funky hideaway

You know when you find a restaurant or a parking spot that is so good you want to keep it to yourself? Same with this lovely, funky spot. It may not suit everyone...it's not a cookie-cutter hotel room...but the large windows and outdoor space made it an oasis for us. The manager was super professional and prompt, making this an effortless family retreat for us. I can't wait to return.

A rare gem nestled in a neighborhood of embassies

This Is one of those times when I don't want to give a superb review because I don't want everybody to know about how great this place is, but that that would be unfair of me wouldn't it? This beautiful home on the ground floor with 2 courtyards and an adorable living area and 3 bedrooms with very comfortable beds is a few blocks off of Dupont circle and, folks, it is just perfect. The kitchen is just the cutest thing ever with a fireplace and very well equipped with vintage dishes and everything you could need. There is a lovely neighborhood small grocer and liquor store and, if you need it thru provide dry cleaning service, about 80 steps away from the entrance, If you want to experience life in a town home neighborhood in Washington DC this is the place for you. I would not recommend this for people with small kids...this is a beautiful home filled with nice objects and I would be nervous to have a little kid running around grabbing at things but that's just me... The owner I worked with, Gloria, was super friendly and low key. This is a charming home in a real keeper for me I will be coming back.

Fabulous!

Spotlessly clean. Quiet. Oodles of charm. Terrific owner. Why would anyone stay anywhere else in Washington? Truly a treat- this is the kind of place we hope to find for a vacation rental, but rarely find. The owner has succeeded in creating a welcoming home that is alive and fun without being cluttered or overdone. Thank you so much for hosting us this week - we would love to return!
