About this property

5 BR 4 BA- New House near Capitol and Library of Congress-Free Parking Permit

** "TOP OF THE LINE" (Guest: Aurelia C.)
** "ACCOMMODATIONS BETTER THAN MOST FOUR STAR HOTELS" (Guest: Beth W.)
** "WAY BETTER THAN ANY HOTEL." (Guest: Matthew T.)
This newly rebuilt town house is in Capitol Hill Historic district. The façade of the house is the same as the house built in 1860 but interior is modern. Located just a little more than one block from the Library of Congress, 3 blocks from the Capitol, and 4 blocks from Supreme Court. A wide variety of restaurants, bars, banks and stores are only one or two blocks away from this house. A full-service gas station is one block away. Eastern Market is about two blocks away. This spacious house has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, two with whirlpool tubs. Also just one block away, guests can find a bus and a bike share station to explore the city.

Eastern Market metro station and Capitol South metro station are about 3 blocks away. However, Uber and taxi are cheaper and easier than metro. For example, metro costs $2 daytime and $ 2.25 rush hour per person. For four people to go to the White House, metro costs $ 8 or $ 9 and you will have to walk 3 or 4 blocks from station to the White House. UberX costs $ 10 directly from our house to the White House. To get to Lincoln Memorial, Metro cost $ 8 or $ 9 for four and you will have to walk 11 blocks from Smithsonian station. UberX costs $11 direct to Lincoln Memorial according to Uber website.

Nationals baseball park is a little over a mile away. It is very easy to go to National Arlington Cemetery from the house: go straight on the street from the house, make one turn on to Memorial Bridge and you are there.

This bright gorgeous house in Capitol Hill historic district has modern décor inside, three skylights, and a backyard with tables and chairs. It has keyless entry door too.

We care about the safety of the guests. The whole house is protected with fire sprinklers. There are smoke alarms and also several carbon monoxide alarms. In addition, there are fire extinguishers in the house. All the box springs and mattresses are protected with CleanRest encasements which keep off allergens, microtoxins, dust mites, and bedbugs.

First floor has a living room, dining room, kitchen and a bedroom with a full bath. Second floor has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Only the Second floor master bathroom is specifically for the master bedroom 2. All the other three bathrooms are accessible by people from any bedrooms. We provide soap, shampoo, conditioner, hair dryers, toilet paper and towels.
There is a wet bar upstairs so that people from upstairs bedrooms do not need to go downstairs for drinks or midnight snacks. Temperatures can be controlled separately downstairs and upstairs. There is one thermostat downstairs and also one upstairs. The house has modern forced air heating and air-conditioning.

If you drive, we will obtain a parking permit for you for free if you send us your license number, make, color and the state of registration before you arrive. Parking is quite easy in front and around the house. The neighborhood is very safe because it falls inside the jurisdiction of both DC Police and Capitol Police.

Dining table has 8 chairs. Kitchen Granite countertop has 6 chairs. There are two Pack and Plays and a high chair for babies. There are 3 TV's including a 50 inch TV in the living room. The house has Wi-Fi too.

Every bedroom has its own closet. The bunkbed is adult size. Kitchen has plates, dishes, utensils and other necessary gadgets. Laundry and dishwasher are ready to go.

People who like to be "Green" should rejoice because the roof and the front wall have sprayed insulation and also there is solar power for the house. There is no hidden fees.

If you need 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms or a studio basement for 2 or 4 people, please check out Property number 971861 hosted by the same manager.

Please don't reserve if you want to have loud and noisy parties or smoke inside the house. Smoking in the house is not allowed. Loud and noisy parties in the house or in the backyard are not allowed.

Great place to stay!
Great place to stay! Peter was an exceptional host. The only drawback is if you want to have a party of any kind, this may not be for you or if you talk too loud at nights after 12…neighbor will complain

All needs met and then some
Perfect location to everything. Great restaurants, museums and all the sights you come to DC to for are within walking distance or a very short Uber ride. Peter would respond within minutes of us reaching out. Plenty of everything is stocked and ready to use; water in the fridge, coffee, cream and sugars for the Keurig. There are Nest thermostats, new washer and dryer, quiet dishwasher, blackout curtains, different levels of firmness on the beds, quiet neighborhood and multiple walkable markets within 5 minutes. Ubers were always within 5 minutes as well. Only 15 minutes to Ronald Reagan Airport as well! We can’t say enough.

There’s No Place Like Home
Staying at this property was like being at home. Safe, secure, comfortable, and roomy. It was 5 of us. We each had our own comfy bed. We had our own bathrooms (only had th share 1). We spent time eating and talking around the dinning table and the kitchen counter on comfortable seating. Very clean. Water pressure great in bathrooms. And just like home, shoes off at the door; inside slippers available. Most notable is the neighborhood. We safely walked everywhere; to the Capital, all the museums, the restaurants, the coffee shops, and the like, any time of day and the night.. Moreover, communication with the owner was prompt, concise, clear, and very nice. For sure, this property is well worth the stay and the pay.

Oasis in the Capitol
Wow! Just back for a visit to Washington D.C. This home was the perfect place to stay -- very, very clean; spacious; comfortable; well appointed; and the location was second to none. Peter is a fantastic host, with great communication that starts the moment you book. Checks in regularly to make sure your stay is perfect. Nice touch to have have water and snacks ready at arrival. We had 6 adults staying. Each had their own bed and bath. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Neighborhood is safe and quiet. Parking was easy to find. A close walk to the Capitol and museums, Metro station, and restaurants at Easton Market and Barracks Row. Would gladly stay here again. Thanks, Peter.

Family celebration
We were in town for a family celebration. Family was between the ages of 27-88. The property was in a great location to sightsee and very spacious for all 10 of us. The property owner was very responsive to our requests. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking, and all the bathrooms had all the amenities needed. Everyone had a great time!!!

Spring break DC trip
Don’t hesitate to plan your stay in the Capital Hill New House. Great location, Peter has a nice set up for all ages. He stocks the cabinets too, so no need to bring mayo, mustard, dishwasher pods, soap, etc. The neighborhood is well lit at night too, so you feel safe when outside. Parking can be tricky use pay attention to instructions and you’ll be OK. Thank you, Peter. A GREAT host!

Best Family Thanksgiving
We took the opportunity to gather family to meet the newest addition ( 10 months old now) to celebrate Thanksgiving and reconnect. This house was a perfect home base for family time and easy access to the hub of D.C., the Mall and museums. The owner was more than accommodating and available for any questions we may have had. We couldn’t have asked for more.

DC visit
everything about this was accurately listed--location within easy walking distance to restaurants and Capitol Hill. VERY clean, property manager on top of things (there is a basement apt. that is rented separately). Safe. lots of space, nicely supplied. One thing that was bit disappointing was that the tv in the living room had a Roku remote but not Roku hooked up and the channel selections were a bit weird.
