About this property
DuPont - Scandinavian Café & Garden Apartment
Serious cleaning protocol & disinfecting!! 100% walkability score. Next to Dupont Circle Metro and 5 blocks from Foggy Bottom. Fantastic entertaining space. Pictures tell all. Professionally designed. Four steps into modern Scandinavian cafe kitchen. Tiled terracotta floors. Blended stucco walls. Two fireplaces -- candles only though! Romantic private patio with trellis lights. Lots of windows. Great floor. Four steps down, Onsite parking available. Private Washer & Dryer. Pets are welcome too.
The space
Ideal for a few couples on holiday, GW family, or World Banker on extended work trip. Lovely private entrance just off 21st street. Amazingly functional living space with all modern amenities. (linens, towels, voice activated TV remote with many movie channels, utensils and cookware, private laundry etc.) You'll love it. Walk down four steps to the unexpected kitchen (more cafe than kitchen) welcomes you with a beautiful curved concrete bar and tall stools. Perfect for a starter course or drinks before you step into the heart of the apartment -- the blended stucco walls of the living room and blue terra-cotta sunburst in the fire place always get an admiring “wow!” from visitors. Step directly into your romantic private patio through a floor to ceiling glass door or nestle on one of two sofas with a good book while candles burn in the fire place. Come bedtime - retire to the master bedroom with a king sized bed and fire place. If you are not a couple and need the space just de-latch the bed feet in this room and you will have two single beds. The smaller bedroom has a terrific queen bed and finally the living room common space has two sofas that fold forward all the way and then flat back to give two more singles. The linens for all beds are in the large bedroom. Serious cleaning protocol & disinfecting!! Airbnb has partnered with experts in health and hospitality to create an enhanced cleaning protocol that helps support us hosts as travel evolves. We follow it religiously. Cleaning is a serious business for our family to be sure you are extra safe when you stay with us.
Guest access
You have full use of a terrific private patio too adjoining the house anytime you like... including a second larger gas grill. On site parking is possible too but it's first come first served so reserve right away - $25 a day (cash on arrival) Park on the left side. Contact us if you need to store stuff before checkin at 4PM. The small red shed is also our kids playhouse. If you have little ones - or a young spirit - please enjoy it and all the drive way toys, bikes, slides etc... too, as you like. Just keep a close eye on the children so they don't get hurt.
Other things to note
Transportation abounds. ============================================================= This is the ideal place to walk the city, as centrally located as you could ever want. ============================================================= We are also 1.5 blocks from the red line, and about 8 minute walk from the blue/orange line. ============================================================= Uber is great in DC too, and if you prefer to cab the St Gregory and Madera Hotels are a hundred feet away in either direction on NH Ave. and almost always have a cab line going. ============================================================= If you bring your own car we potentially have a spot available for you in our driveway at a rate of $25/night - much less than public parking in the area. Just contact us and reserve the spot right away... first come first served. ============================================================= Washington BikeShare is also only 400 feet away. Also there are electric scooters literally on every corner. It's a fantastic way to see the city. You can sign up for all the apps before you come to make it easy. Here is a list in order of my preference but they are all great. SKIP, JUMP, LIME, RAZOR, SKIP, SPIN, BIRD, ============================================================= Here is just a sample of what's walking close: - Wonderful Restaurants--1 block all directions - Dupont Circle Metro--1.5 blocks - Capital Bikeshare -- 2 blocks -- 3 minute walk -Foggy Bottom Metro - 4.5 blocks - 8 min walk - Grocery store -- 4 blocks to Trader Joes & Whole Foods. - Coffee shops-- 2 blocks in any direction to Starbucks :-) 3 blocks to Bagels Etc... best in DC! - Rock Creek Park -- 3 blocks -- (includes public tennis courts, amazing club-like public pool, basketball court, fields, a playground, and miles of running trail. - Kennedy Center--7 blocks - White House--8.5 blocks - Georgetown--10 blocks--12 minute walk - Lincoln Memorial--12 blocks--24 minute walk - Tourist sites on the Mall--12 blocks--24 minute walk - Drug store/pharmacy--2 blocks
