About this property
Capitol Hill Row Home: 1 Block to Metro and Groceries -- and has Garage!
This three bedroom row house was built in the early 1900’s, but has been fully renovated and equipped with solar power. With all modern conveniences, you can relax at home or head out the see the sights. The Metro is just a block away! A brand new Safeway is one block away. The U.S. Capitol is 14 blocks away––you can walk, jump on a bus, Uber/Lyft, or take the Metro. It also has its own garage, a rarity on Capitol Hill. Step out the door and the city awaits, and after a long day of exploring, relax in your new home-away-from-home. It is the perfect house for your city explorations!
The owner (and her partner) live in the basement of the house. Access to the downstairs living quarters is in the back yard so you may see them coming and going from time to time, but there is no direct connection between upstairs and downstairs. Nor do the downstairs residents use any of the amenities in the main house, so the rental is completely private.
Located in Washington, this holiday home is in the city centre. Smithsonian National Postal Museum and Washington Navy Yard are cultural highlights, and some of the area's notable landmarks include Washington Monument and White House. Travelling with kids? Make time for National Air and Space Museum, or head to an event or a match at Capital One Arena. Take the opportunity to explore the area for outdoor excitement like cycling.

Everyone in my family loved their stay.The location is beyond excellent! The place sleeps eight, with two to a bed and an air mattress. It worked out well for our group.
This is a great property. Close to the Metro, restaurants and a grocery store. Nice neighborhood, quiet, and easy to get around in. We had everything we needed. Our family gathering was memorable.
We had a very comfortable stay! The beds were very comfy, check-in easy, washer and dryer, great communication. The metro stop just down the way and Safeway very close.
The house was well appointed, in a great neighborhood and the proximity to the Metro was great! We basically slept and ate breakfast there but it worked great for our family of 4. Close to the sites. The Eastern Market was nearby and a great place to eat. Would stay here again if we went back to DC.
The property was inviting, clean, and we loved the back patio. Parking was a breeze. Metro was so close and easy to navigate. Alec answered all our questions prior to visiting AND even surprised us with a Keurig when I asked if one was in the kitchen. Perfect for a multigenerational family vacation.
Six septuagenarian sibling/spouses stayed here. Enjoyed the house, the backyard and the proximity to museums and mall. Check in and out were a breeze. Only caveat or caution would be to note that stairs in this age house are steep if anyone in your party has mobility issues.
The space was ideal for our group. It was comfortable and well laid out for the 6 of us. The property manager was helpful and prompt when we reached out. The area has a lot of amenities and is easily accessible to the metro.
definitely a great find!
We thoroughly enjoyed this house, which was well-outfitted, comfortable, quiet. We experience a minor issue with the heating which was corrected 100% very promptly with the kind assistance of Alec (which is why we provided a 4 out of 5 star rating...absent that issue, it's FIVE-star worthy)! We loved that this was walking- distance to grocery store, and just a mile to the Eastern Market area of WashDC. THANKS for an EXCELLENT visit!
My husband and I hosted my niece and her family for a week at this house. It was perfect. A quiet neighborhood with close both the metro and a Safeway grocery store within a block. The house was just as described with a wonderful welcome book filled with great information. Alec was very responsive from beginning to end. We would definitely stay here again.
Three friends visiting the sights in DC, and we had a wonderful time. The house was perfect…spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, updated bathrooms, and spacious kitchen. After exhausting days of walking, we enjoyed cocktails on the patio, having been to the very close Safeway that had everything we could possibly need.
Our host was very communicative and accommodating. Definitely a 5 star!
Location and house were great. One block to a Safeway and one block to the Metro. Only issue was a car illegally packed in alley making it difficult to get out. Not the owner's fault. great weather and easy to get around. Nice neighborhood. Easy to work with owner.

Pictures were taken awhile back. A centipede was on the stairs. Good size one. A package was stolen from the front door. Mold was caulked over in the shower. The best thing about the place was the location.
My sisters and I met to celebrate their two big birthdays in January. We chose this location as it had 3 bedrooms and a garage. The home was perfect for our needs, well appointed kitchen, very comfortable beds, two full bathrooms and easy access to the Metro. We enjoyed two wonderful restaurants within walking distance of the home. Catching an Uber was a breeze. The location is in a quiet neighborhood yet only 9 blocks from the Capital. The home owner provided a very thorough welcome book which was very helpful. We highly recommend it.
This was a fabulous VRBO for our party of seven (two adults, one teen, and four elementary-age kids). Our only hiccup was that the blow up mattress didn't seem to be functioning, but the property manager was responsive and helpful, and we quickly found a solution. If I'm being nitpicky, I could say they could use a few more spoons (but spoons wander from many houses). Otherwise, the house was clean, warm, welcoming, functional, and had everything we needed. Will definitely try to rent this place again if we ever return to DC.
We had a lovely time at this Capitol Hill property. We travel as a family at least twice a year and have stayed at many homes. We have 3 daughters, 22, 20 and 17. Pros: close to metro and groceries, comfortable bedrooms, back yard a lovely hang out, quiet, eclectic and safe neighborhood.Cons: generally clean, but needs a good deep cleaning - the rugs are dirty and musty; generally well kept, but needs some attention to detail with general wear and tear- holes in walls from removed curtain ties not repaired, closet pulls falling off, closet doors not on tracks, chipped paint - just minor upkeep would make the house more appealing. It’s more worn than the photos suggest. We lived in an old Philadelphia rowhouse for a decade, we know how hard it is to keep up old homes! The only thing that I was a bit surprised at was the security - there were no dead bolts on outside doors to lock from the inside - only simple locks on doors with single pane glass and no curtains - would be very easy to break into if desired. Overall, we had a lovely time. We spent our days at museums - for us it was a place to sleep and hang out a bit before dinner out and for respite at night. It was a nice home for our family of 5 and we would recommend it for the easy access!
