About this property

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.

Really one of the nicest, best equipped VRBOs that I've stayed at. Appreciated have the coffee there, real cable tv and plenty of towels and linens. Very clean and comfortable.
Great location and easy to walk to all attractions. Very convenient to restaurants and stores. This was our 2nd stay in this unit, and it has always met our expectations.
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.
Place is in a perfect location for all of the Washington attractions, close to good food. Perfect one bedroom place, clean and wellMaintained. Host are very responsive to all communications, highly recommend
This made a wonderful home-base as we visited family and toured the local attractions. If you like walking historic neighborhoods, it's great for that.
Property is very comfortable. Location is great- near three Metro stops. Kitchen is well equipped and unit has everything you need! Great communication with host.

Loved this place and location. There were many extra fees so double check final costs before booking.
Charlotte provides a wonderful & cozy Capitol Hill experience! Walking distance to anything you could possibly need & enjoy. Would book this well stocked unit again & recommend for anyone who’s looking for a charming/safe neighborhood with all the features you could possibly want.
This English basement apartment is ideally located. It is as advertised – clean, comfortable. And well furnished. we would definitely stay there again.
Perfect for the two of us. A great location behind the capital, but we spent a lot of time in Georgetown which was a long way away. Neighborhood has a diner down the street for breakfast and a couple of markets really close by.
Nice clean apartment just blocks from Capital Hill
This unit was so clean!! and cozy. Well equipped with all of the necessities. Great area - just blocks from Capital Hill, 2 blocks from a park, a few blocks from several restaurants, overall great location!! Definitely would recommend staying here if you are in the DC area.
This was a nice apartment rental in a wonderful location. Five short blocks from the supreme court/capital building in a beautiful neighborhood. Thanks!
This was a great spot to stay - the property was clean, everything worked wonderfully, and the hosts/property manager was excellent. All questions answered right away!
There are several places within walking distance which should be on anyone's to-go-to DC list, but this property was still nice and quiet.
