About this property
Washington, DC home away from home, where luxe meets comfort.
We’re on vacation just like you…so enjoy our home while we’re away!
Stay In:
Prepare gourmet meals with gas-range cooking and every tool, spice and gadget you can possibly imagine. Relax and lounge in the three true bedrooms, each with TVs, extra pillows and comforters; and two bedrooms have direct access into separate spa-worthy bathrooms. We’ve equipped the bedroom level laundry closet with supplies and ironing essentials. We’ve set up guest users for Netflix, Hulu, Max, Prime and, of course, high-speed WiFi. Need to telework… spread out on the massive desk that elevates to standing position and plug into the 34” curved monitor. The Weber grill on the patio is poised and ready for your pleasure—charcoal, lighter fluid and grilling tools provided.
Head out:
Off-street secured parking (with EV charging) makes city living a breeze! Leave the car parked while you explore on foot, public transit, Capital Bikeshare, or Metro Rail...all either steps away or no more than a 1-mile walk to two different Metro lines (Red and Yellow/Green). Feel safe returning home after dark to our professionally designed and well-lit exterior in both front and back yards.
Our community is quiet with excellent neighbors and picturesque with tree-lined streets and a family-filled park only two blocks away. Restaurants, shopping, grocery stores, fitness centers, etc. are in abundance and in every direction. Yelp and Google will be your best resources.
