Our home is over 100 years old, but we have lovingly restored it without gutting the charm out of it. You'll find all the modern amenities in a classic wrapper. Combining marble, glass, granite, stainless, original hearts of pine wood flooring to create warm and beautiful spaces. Stay in a piece of history in a city steeped in history.
As for the neighborhood, the H Street area is trendy, hip, and chic. New restaurants open up every day, and the development in this area is hard to stay on top of. You'll find Whole Foods, Trader Joes, and Starbucks within just a few blocks of my house, but you won't really find any chain restaurants or bars. H Street (and the nearby Union Market) have still retained a kind of 'hipster charm' and have a rugged individualism to them.
The house itself is a real house--not a hotel room. You will be able to kick back after a long day of site seeing and either settle down for the night with a book or TV, or warm up for a night out on H Street, Union Market, or elsewhere in the District.
