About this property

Private Lower Suite With Walkout Patio Facing Park

This newly remodeled downstairs suite with private walkout patio is the perfect getaway in Arlington. It is mere steps to surrounding trails and parks, walking/biking distance to fantastic shopping and dining, and minutes' commute to Washington DC and other destinations in the DC metro area.



Outdoors:

The walkout patio faces a tree-lined park where kids from 8 to 80 play baseball, soccer, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, and more. The patio has a bistro table, chairs, and a firepit with plenty of firewood. You can enjoy that natural outdoor beauty year round, whether from the patio or from the living room or kitchenette through the large windows.



Tennis and pickleball courts are just steps away. A popular sliding hill and a historic farm house are just down the street. Walking/biking trails, a frisbee golf course, a historic train caboose, a skate park, the idyllic Four Mile Run creek, a beautiful rose garden, and more are all within short walking distance.



Indoors:

Inside the naturally lit suite you will find a cozy living room with fold-out sofa and in a whimsical touch, a hammock for napping or watching TV. The hammock is easily stowed when not in use. Next to the living space is a kitchenette with refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, induction cooktop, and high-end coffee and espresso maker.



The corner bedroom has a full dresser and queen bed, a second interior bedroom has a single bed, and the entry area has a brand new extra-large capacity washer and dryer. The bathroom features a refreshing shower and a hair dryer for convenience.



Getting around:

There is ample free parking on the neighborhood streets, a rarity in Arlington and DC. You can usually find a spot right in front of the property. If you want to ditch the car, the nearest Metro bus stop is about a 5-minute walk. After a 5-minute bus ride you're in the popular Ballston neighborhood, where you can dine, shop, take in a movie, and more. From there, catch a train at the Ballston Metro station for some sightseeing in DC and around town.

This basement apartment was fantastic with a private entrance and a great view of the park behind the house. Street parking was plentiful and FREE. My son and I were visiting my hometown and this was perfectly located between the Virginia suburbs where I grew up and all of the tourist sites in DC. It was much cheaper than any nearby hotel and, IMO, much nicer. Would definitely rent again.

We enjoyed it, a cute place in a nice neighborhood and we would go there again. With 2 feisty girls who are argumentative and food-picky, it is nice to have separate rooms and a place to make simple meals. Thanks! Mike

Jim and Lorena are the best hosts! Their place is so nice and clean and spacious, not to mention a super convenient location. They respond quickly and provide everything you need for an extended stay. Also, when my family had a medical emergency, Jim and Lorena were so flexible and accommodating, and let us extend our stay. They are very kind and followed up to see how my family was doing. I definitely recommend booking their place when visiting the DC/northern VA area!

This was a great location to get to our friends in Herndon, the Pentagon and DC to see our niece! This was my mistake, but I missed that it was in the basement of the hosts home. This was not an issue at all, but my error as i just missed it. Jim could not have been more responsive and helpful! Having full sized laundry was key for us as this stay was a part of a much larger 3 week trip and we needed to do laundry. VERY clean washing machine and dryer. I would recommend staying here to anyone visiting the area. Getting to/from public transportation was so convenient! Thank you so much Jim!

About the host

Hosted by Jim and Lorena

Host profile image
Jim and Lorena hope you love this house and its surroundings as much as we do! We have lived here for over 10 years and have lived in Arlington for over 20 years. Lorena is originally from Brazil. She is an ESL teacher in a nearby elementary school. Jim is originally from Minnesota. He is recently retired from work in international-development finance and in consulting and engineering before that.

Why they chose this property

Ten years ago we moved from our house a mile away to get more living space for our growing family (two kids), staying so close by because we love Arlington so our kids could stay in their same schools. We love the park behind the house, the creek just past the park, and the pleasant walking and biking on the trails along the creek, around the parks, and beyond.

What makes this property unique

There are so many amenities just outside your door: The parks, the tennis and pickleball courts, the creek, the rose garden, the frisbee golf course, the Reevesland historic house and world-famous sliding hill, and so much more. We call it an urban oasis because you are smack dab in Arlington VA, just outside the nation's capital. Yet the area feels like a suburban/rural retreat, with ample free street parking - unheard of anywhere else in the city.
