Discover Urban Charm in Southeast DC
Welcome to a globally inspired retreat in the vibrant heart of Southeast Washington, DC. This is a neighborhood with spirit—layered, lived-in, and full of real city rhythm. Yes, you'll hear the sounds of urban life and feel the pulse of a historic African American community—but that's part of its magic. Nestled on a quiet, community-minded block with welcoming neighbors, this stylish, pet-friendly home offers comfort, culture, and a true sense of place.
What You’ll Love:
• Secure Parking + Easy Access: Private gated parking in the rear via alleyway and ample street parking out front offer flexibility for drivers.
• 2 Bedrooms + Flexible Sleeping: Rest easy in the serene main bedroom with a queen bed and infant setup. The cozy basement offers a double bed, and there's a queen air mattress for extra guests.
• Culturally Rich Interiors: From curated African art to plush seating and a Smart TV, every detail speaks to comfort and global design.
• Fully Equipped Home Office: The lower-level workspace includes an ergonomic setup—ideal for creatives and remote workers alike.
• Chef-Ready Kitchen: Cook up your favorites with stainless steel appliances, curated spices, and a touch of DC flavor.
• Spa-Inspired Bathrooms: Enjoy fresh towels, elegant finishes, and luxe toiletries for a hotel-quality experience.
• Urban Outdoor Escape: Sway in the hammock on the jasmine-lined back deck, pick herbs from the garden, sip coffee on the front porch, or gather for al fresco meals on the private patio.
• Family + Pet Friendly: Thoughtfully stocked for little ones and four-legged friends, with room to relax, play, and feel at home.
Come for the culture, stay for the comfort. This isn’t just a stay—it’s a Southeast DC story waiting to be lived.
Secure parking in the rear, accessible via a gated alleyway, plus additional street parking available in front of the home.
With the exception of my bedroom, guests have full access to the entire home, during their stay. This includes:
Two bedrooms: a cozy second-floor queen bedroom (with infant sleep setup available) and a lower-level bedroom with a double bed.
Two full bathrooms stocked with fresh towels and spa-inspired toiletries.
A dedicated home office with ergonomic chairs—ideal for remote work or creative projects.
Fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, cooking essentials, and a curated spice selection for global-inspired meals.
Indoor living spaces featuring vibrant African decor, comfortable seating, and natural light throughout.
Outdoor areas including a front porch for morning coffee, a private backyard patio with gas grill for al fresco dining, and a jasmine-scented back deck with a hammock for afternoon lounging.
On-site laundry, high-speed Wi-Fi, and climate control throughout the home.
Pet-friendly amenities, including bowls, waste bags, and nearby green spaces for walks.
Whether you're traveling with family, working remotely, or exploring DC’s rich culture, you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable and inspiring stay.

About the host
Hosted by Lavon Sajona
I was born in Ohio, but have traveled and lived internationally. My goal as a host is to showcase my art and the community here in S.E DC. So far, I have hosted a range of guests and enjoy meeting and engaging with them. I find it exciting.
Why they chose this property
I love it here. Southeast DC unfairly has a poor reputation but I find it to be a real community here. I feel safe and secure living here.
What makes this property unique
My space is eclectic and cannot be reproduced. I designed and decorated it to evoke an emotion and positive vibration and feel. I hope that you enjoy it.
