Property Description
Great location—this hidden gem in the center of Northwest Washington, D.C. is ten minutes by taxi from Ronald Reagan National Airport and five minutes from Union Station. Situated several blocks from the D.C. Convention Center, you can walk to Metro (subway station—yellow, green and silver lines), the White House, the Smithsonian museums on the National Mall, Logan Circle and a legion of world class restaurants. You can also walk to Chinatown, City Center, Downtown, Penn Quarter, Whole Foods and 14th Street nightlife. Explore, rest, rejuvenate, relax! Originally the kitchen of a large Victorian home built in the 1860s, this elegant, unique English basement apartment has seen a lot of history here in the Nation's Capital, and its current incarnation is versatile, sleek and compact with sunny front windows that receive lots of morning light. The unit is equipped with cable, WiFi, a 43" smart TV, a Bose stereo and a full-size washer/dryer. A peaceful, private, walled garden with three water features in the rear and a small gas-powered wood stove in the living room further enhance the unit's unique charm. A four-top table converts to seat six, and four extra folding chairs are stored in the coat closet. In addition to the queen-size bed in the bedroom, the sofa converts to a full size bed that sleeps two. If you prefer to dine at home, you have everything you need to cook and serve a seated dinner for six. In the kitchen you’ll find coffee, tea, creamer, sugar, spices, oil and vinegar. Dish and laundry soap are provided, as are shampoo, conditioner, soap, a blow-dryer and clean towels. Bed linens are provided. Inquire about additional maid service if you need it. There’s a grocery store, a convenience store, and a liquor store within a block, and up 14th Street there’s a Whole Foods and a Trader Joe's. There is street parking only, and on request a residential parking permit is provided at no charge. The permit’s allows parking in the restricted areas around the home. You will need to provide your vehicle's plate number, state, make and color in advance of your arrival when requesting the pass.

We absolutely loved this place. Very clean and comfortable. This is one of the best equipped kitchens I’ve seen in a VRBO property. Tom, our host, was amazing - super helpful and friendly. The location is also perfect. Easy walking to so many great sites and restaurants. I will absolutely stay here again and recommend it to family and friends.

We enjoyed a wonderful long weekend at Tom's. Location is excellent, we walked to mall, museums, and restaurants. Quick walk to metro to take red line to zoo, blue line to Georgetown, or yellow to Alexandria. Spotless, well stocked kitchen. No problem finding a parking spot. Always felt safe in the area. Tom was so responsive prior to and during our stay. There was a clogged toilet and he was quick to get it fixed. Highly recommend!

We came to the DC area to do some site seeing and go to the Capitals home opener. We visited with family in the area as well. The unit was perfectly located for the activities we had planned and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The communication prior to our stay regarding parking was clear and easy to understand, which was super helpful. Thanks so much!!

The accommodations were perfectly located. We found on street parking nearby. (Didn’t move the car after some first day arrival activities). We walked to Smithsonian and many restaurants that Tom recommended. The rental was well equipped, up to date, and very clean.

Great stay in D.C. Very nice apartment, in a nice neighborhood. Check in was a breeze, Tom gave us detailed instructions and he was great to communicate with and very helpful. The apartment had everything we needed. The kitchen had plenty of pots and plans and dishes for some evening meals. Thanks for a great stay!
