Centrally located in the heart of Cleveland Park/Forest Hills, this gorgeous stately Federal Townhouse English basement apartment is located on a SAFE, quiet tree-lined block, just two blocks from the Metro and the Scandinavian Embassy, Levine Music School, Howard Law School and Burke High School. Relax in a private space after a long, lovely day enjoying DC. This apartment has its own private entrance, a few steps from the walkway. Relax in a cozy space after enjoying site seeing in DC. Come ‘home' to a fully renovated private apartment with separate entrance, a small fully-stocked kitchen with sunny windows, a new bathroom, a 40" Samsung Smart TV and a full size washer/dryer. We have personalized QR codes for WiFi access as well as Property and Neighborhood details. Please note, there is no dishwasher; however, eating utensils are sanitized before you arrive and high-touch areas are cleaned with Clorox disinfectants. The master bedroom has a California King size bed with a super comfortable Casper mattress and the second bedroom has two full size beds (both with Casper mattresses). There is also a pull out sofa - enough space to accommodate 6 people. This apartment is 2 blocks from the local Giant grocery store, CVS and several wonderful ethnic restaurants. You can also walk to the various Embassies or head straight into Rock Creek Park, by Peirce Mill. The property is easily accessible to the UDC/Van Ness Metro Station (2 blocks), bus stops (1 block) and City Bike Share (1 block) and scooters galore. If you have a car, we can secure a parking permit for our block and may be able to offer garaged parking for an additional fee, though check with us first.
Guest access You will have access to the entire 2 bedroom basement garden apartment, with its own separate entrance. You also have access to the backyard which has a fire pit, turf area and basketball hoops. Very private space. Come and go as you please!
Other things to note We have three children who would happily entertain yours if you arrive as a family. We are just steps away from several Embassies (Netherlands, Indonesia, Kuwait, Honduras, and others) as well as the Howard University School of Law, and several local independent schools and universities (Sidwell, Burke, American U., Georgetown U, etc) If you have any associates at those locations, you are extremely close!
*bonus: If you need a sitter, our teenage daughter loves to babysit and is often available!

Host (Rod) was very responsive and considerate, alerting us of updated items/upcoming events. Location was excellent, very walkable with good grocery/food options. Amenities were just what we needed. Having an extra bedroom was super helpful for 3 adults in one space and the common/living room area was both room and comfy. Would definitely stay again, especially for longer DC stay and if wanting to avoid going out for every meal. Thanks Rod and Gabrielle!
The location of the home is very close to the metro. The neighborhood is very family friendly. The space was clean and comfortable. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions and very gracious.
Rod was very timely and accommodating in his communication. We enjoyed the backyard fire pit and the apartment was cute and cozy. The neighborhood was clean and felt safe. Loved that the Metro was a short walk away. I would totally stay here again. Thank you for everything!
A very comfortable apartment with excellent, caring hosts. The location is perfect for exploring DC and the neighbourhood has the shops and restaurants you need. Highly recommended!
This place makes for a wonderful stay! The hosts were very gracious, the neighborhood is great for walking, and the proximity to the metro is excellent.
We enjoyed out stay. The proximity to the Metro was key. Grocery store was a short walk away. Our host was outstanding. Communication was excellent. We had a great trip!
We stayed at the apartment for 4 nights and had a wonderful stay. Rod, the host, was incredibly attentive and responsive, and the property was comfortable and clean. The location was perfect for us. Would recommend and stay again!
Great space with comfortable leather sofa. The outdoor patio looked like it had great potential once it was set up. A grocery store close to the Metro station was very convenient.
We enjoyed the quiet street and handy access to Metro. Rod provided lots of research material for getting around and places to see. Very comfortable beds. Small but easy to use kitchen. We loved the backyard.
We enjoyed our visit to the DC area while we moved our son into college. Location was great! Quick walk to the metro and easy access to so many restaurants and sites of interest. Our hosts were communicative and very accommodating! Lovely place and will stay again.
Apt was very nice, clean, well stocked with necessities. Host was very attentive with any of my questions and communicated in a timely manner. Loved the location and the fact we parked for free. Would definitely reserve again next time in the DC area.
We enjoyed being so close to the Metro and every service we could possibly want. The apartment was a great place for the four of us to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. The hosts were on top of everything including getting us a parking pass for the one day we rented a car. Can't wait to stay again.
