About this property

Enjoy a classic Capitol Hill experience just 5 blocks from the seat of power.

OUR CALENDAR IS ACCURATE, IF THE SYSTEM ALLOWS YOU TO BOOK, THOSE DATES ARE AVAILABLE.

This elegant, historic (circa 1890) brick townhouse is located on a lovely tree-lined street in the center of Capitol Hill within walking distance of the U.S. Capitol, Eastern Market and Union Station. It is the perfect apartment for a discerning single, couple or travel companions visiting our Nation’s Capital. This lovely lower level apartment is newly and very tastefully refurbished with a new modern kitchen and bath, hardwood floors throughout, all new furniture, and striking original artwork. The spacious 750sf of living space is notable for its high ceilings and exposed brick wall.

This sleek urban 1BR apartment is just 5 blocks from the US Capitol grounds. This is a quintessential Capitol Hill brownstone on a quiet, beautiful tree lined street. You will find this to be the perfect Washington location whether you are in DC for business on The Hill, visiting family or tourism.


AMENITIES:
• Accommodates 2 people (queen bed; Convertible queen sofa);
• Keyless entry;
• Stocked kitchen for dining and meal preparation;
• Granite kitchen counters and island with bar stools;
• Strong WIFI for work or research;
• AC units and baseboard heating so you are in control of your climate;
• 42 inch Plasma TV for your entertainment;
• Stacking washer/dryer in the apartment.

LOCATION:
Capitol Hill radiates a heady sense of geo-political significance with a small town feel. You're just a few blocks away from landmarks like the Supreme Court, U.S. Capitol, Senate and House Office Buildings, and the Library of Congress. At the same time, Hill locals have managed to instill a sense of "neighborhood." It's easy to see why the area's residents cherish their brownstones and tree-lined streets. You'll be able to run most errands on foot, not to mention walking to a variety of restaurants and cafes around Eastern Market and Pennsylvania and Massachusetts Avenues. You'll be near the 11 Smithsonian Museums along our National Mall including the Air and Space Museum, the National Gallery of Art, Sackler and Freer Galleries of African and Asian Art respectively, National Museum of American History, the National Portrait Gallery & American Art Gallery and the list goes on!

TRANSPORTATION:
Leave your car at home, having a car in DC is more a liability than a convenience! Nearby Union Station is a transportation hub for not only Washington DC, but also for the mid-Atlantic region. Union Station is also home to Washington’s Metro Red Line, Metro and Circulator buses, tour operators, and rental cars and bikes. Two train lines, AMTRAK and local MARC trains, also run out of the train station.
If you are driving to DC and need parking, we can also order you a street parking permit. Please check with us first on this, we will need the car make, model, and the plate state & number.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned apartment, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on request.
This smoke-free apartment features complimentary parking nearby, books, and a tennis court on site. Recreational activities include a playground, sledding nearby, and hiking/biking trails nearby.
Guests will find features like wireless internet access.

We enjoyed our stay at the Capitol Hill apartment. The location is on a quiet charming street just a short 10 minute or so walk to the Capitol and metro station. Charlotte arranged free parking for us and we didn’t use our car for the entire stay. The home is well decorated, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked for preparing meals. The bathroom has a large shower and nice bath towels. The only suggestion I would have would be a new mattress, the one side is a little uneven. I would stay here again if returning to Washington.

We are glad we made this choice. This cute, nicely appointed apartment was attractive, comfortably furnished with a well stocked kitchen for cooking, and a good night's sleep on the queen bed. The owner communicated well and answered all questions promptly. There were even some extensive recommendations for things to visit in the capitol. It was an easy 25 minute walk to the capitol buildings and grounds. Lot's of eateries nearby. The neighborhood was lovely and quiet. There was some overhead footstep noise from the upper residents but only noticeable for a short while in the evenings. Did not disturb our sleep. We would happily return.

My wife and I found the kitchen to be very well equipped. It even included condiments and spices, etc. that are not normally found in time-rental spaces. Kitchen cabinets and storage are well laid out, making cooking in the kitchen a breeze. The rooms were spotless, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Parking was easily found on the street (usually in the same block); the host's and manager's promptness in obtaining a parking permit was most helpful. In sum, we look forward to using VRBO again when we visit Washington, DC, and we really hope that this location is available when we do!
