Enjoy all Arlington and the Nation’s Capital have to offer at this stylish, well-maintained, professionally decorated, and centrally-located 1950’s rambler.
You’ll enjoy access to the entire house. The main level has hardwood floors throughout and all the essentials (living room, dining room, kitchen, and full bathroom) to go with the two bedrooms. The primary bedroom is large relative to the rest of the house (it was once two bedrooms that have now been converted into one). The other upstairs bedroom is average sized. There is also a balcony off the dining room in the back.
From the downstairs you can walk out to the back patio (below the balcony). There’s also the family room, laundry room, full bath, and the third bedroom with a trundle bed, ergonomic chair, and a sit/stand desk. Each level is approximately 780 square feet.
This is a 70-year old house with charming quirks and character surrounded by modern style and decor. We hope you’ll admire it as much as we do.

We had a wonderful stay at Clarendon Cottage. The place was clean and comfortable providing plenty of space for our family to prepare meals and hang out together. Having off-street parking was also most convenient.
Great house for our crowd of 6. Easy location for Ubering into Georgetown and other DC area attractions! House was very clean. The neighborhood around it was good for walking. Chris is a very responsive host!
Great house, great location, great host! This house was perfect for our crew of 6. Plenty of space, had all the amenities we could have ever needed, and the host was super to work with. The location was excellent as it was a 15 min walk to the Metro and short drives just about anywhere else. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Clarendon cottage was a restful and enjoyable stay with plenty of room for our party of five. The home was one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed and the owner could write a guidebook on how to make people feel comfortable and welcome. This place was perfect.
Clarendon Cottage was great. It was quiet, clean and the perfect distance to the area attractions. Great location with easy access to the main travel corridors without all the noise. Quiet secluded neighborhood and outside patios were the perfect place to unwind after our busy days of activities.
We stayed with our kids while visiting DC. It is a great location with restaurants nearby and the Courthouse Metro a short walk away plus the Metro ride itself is a short ride to the popular sites in DC. The house is in a quiet neighborhood but had plenty of room for the 5 of us.
Great place to bring our family! We brought our kids for the first time to visit all the monuments and this place made the experience even better. Close to the metro, host provided great communication and information. We were greeted with a snack basket and a cozy place to stay at.
Thank you!
This was such a great find. But when we showed up, the design of the home was even better in person. Centrally located, easy parking, automated locked door, all the essentials, and clean/very organized. We will plan to stay here next time we’re in the area!

Thank you Tiffany! Glad you had a pleasant experience and we would be glad to have you back next time.
We arrived early in DC and visted the Arlington Cemetery and were only 10 minutes from the property. We were within 5-10 minutes of the Metro. This property is located in a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to everything we wanted to do. We had 3 kids that took over the basement and kept them entertained. Very nice patio area and had an overall great stay. Chris was very accomadating and a helpful. We would definitely stay again. Five Stars
Perfekte Ferienwohnung für Familien wenige Kilometer von der National Mall in Washington. Ruhige Lage, sehr gute Ausstattung und viel Platz.

Carsten was a great communicator and left the house in great shape. I honestly could hardly tell if anyone had even been in the house! Would definitely invite him back anytime.
