About this property

Mid Century Hollywood Glam in Redbrick Row Home.

Summary:
Wake up rejuvenated in this stunning residence. The chic home showcases vintage furnishings and decor, unique artwork throughout, contrasting textures and patterns, a cozy indoor fireplace, and a quaint front yard seating area. Parking Pass included!

The Space:
Wake up rejuvenated in our stunning home in the center of the historic Shaw neighborhood. Exquisitely and lovingly designed with no expense spared or detail missed. Movie star glamour combined with D.C. history; this is quite the location for your DC stay. Beautiful high ceilings, an open-plan living area, and an unbelievable location!

The Space
Mid century meets Hollywood glam in our stunning, fully renovated, historic home. Originally built in 1888 by premiere architect Julius Germuller (known for intricate stone-work in the iconic DC Rowhouses), guests can experience a charm and history completely unique to anything else. 

We can comfortably sleep 10 guests in 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms as follows;
~ Sofa bed in the family room
~ King sized bed and full/double sized sofa bed in the master bedroom
~ Queen sized bed and full / double sized sofa bed in the second bedroom

Guests can turn the key, and enter a spacious living room with furniture boasting warm hues and the softest luxurious fabrics - perfect for slinking back after a long day of enjoying the city resting outside your door. With original artwork, carefully selected reading materials and decor; this is quite the spot to unwind - you may not want to leave!

Three TV`s (living room, and one in each bedroom) come outfitted with smart streaming & cable; allowing guests who can`t sleep without their favorite programs, the opportunity to stream to their heart`s content (perfect for those traveling with families).

The fully renovated kitchen comes complete with everything one might need to cook up a storm. The veritable heart of the home overlooks the hustle and bustle of the city via an expansive bay window, and includes all new appliances, breakfast bar seating, and a lovely wraparound bench. Mosey over to the dining table by the living room bay window for a change of scenery, and an interactive space where folks can dine, unwind, and relax. 
 
The master suite boasts a king sized canopy bed, which adds shimmering style to the space. With a queen sized sofa bed in the same room, it is both comfortable and functional. Enjoy the en-suite bathroom with two rain shower heads - THE way to start the day!

There`s a washer/dryer for your convenience and a laptop friendly workspace between the bedrooms, that overlooks the street for some good people watching.

The second bedroom has a queen bed and also has a pull-out sofa to sleep little ones, or an additional guest. Much like the kitchen; the second bedroom boasts views from every angle through its wall of windows (but shades are included for additional privacy). 

Guests will have complete control of the space - from the temperature, to cable TV, to an intercom system - making this lovely space your perfect home base for your trip to the nation`s capital. For a breath of fresh air, just pop out front to relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine in the wicker rocking chairs that overlook the hustle and bustle of the city-scape. 

Our historic home is more than just a place to live; it’s a living history that you can be a part of!

The Neighborhood:
In addition to the Shaw restaurants, bars, and nightlife, the property is mere steps from the main bus and subway lines to Georgetown, The Capitol, White House, Smithsonian, U Street, Adams Morgan, and more.

Getting Around:
We are a 5 minute stroll on foot from the Shaw/Howard Metro Stop and about 14 minutes from the U Street/African American Civil War Memorial/Cardozo Station. 
Nearby buses, Capital Bikeshare’s, and Uber’s surround the area - 95% Walk Score!
Shaw, centered around U Street NW, has been the hub for African-American social, cultural, and economic progress in the nation`s capital! U St is famous for it’s lively music scene and its smorgasbord of dining options. Foodies will have no shortage of choices; from Ben’s Chili Bowl to homemade ice cream at the Ice Cream Jubilee, there’s a little something for everyone.
The neighborhood is very safe - experience the nightlife of U St, and leisurely stroll back to your apartment for some welcome respite.

Home Away From Home
This place was absolutely amazing!!! It was so welcoming and comfortable, with thoughtful consideration given to every detail, from the luxuriousness of the bed and bedding to the dual-head shower system to the wonderfully designed and modern kitchen. We were so happy with the home that we did not want to leave. Well that was until the last day when we were woken from our comfortable and much needed sleep to an alarm system blaring throughout the house at 8:00 in the morning, after we had paid an additional fee for a late checkout.

I have seen many apartments but nothing was ever as spectacular as this place. The owner clearly has a lot of design sense and the attention to detail was amazing. Do not book this if you only want to sleep here - it's too beautiful for that! It is truly gorgeous.

Good base for DC exploration, nice owners, but may not be great for large groups or small kids
We really enjoyed our stay with DC being so walkable, we were able to eat at great restaurants on 14th, coffee at Boon on 11th, happy hour at Dacha Beer Garden and nearby Whole Foods. The downstairs tv, tables were good for both end of day tv time and working during the day and kitchen had all we needed. We had a car and the provided parking pass allowed us to park on street easily and we never had trouble finding a spot within a block. The owners also approved our parking pass (via DC website) on short notice so we did not have problems. Its big city living, and right on Rhode Island ave, so there were intermittent sirens overnight and a friendly neighbor advised us to be sure to lock doors, so might not stay here if you can't sleep through city noises. The "sleeps 10" involves 3 couches, 2 of which are in bedrooms with beds and can only be used as couches (though we did not ask), so 4 6 footers were a little more crammed than I would've liked. We also had an issue trying to find a constant beep echoing downstairs that we thought might be a smoke detector but turned out to be a dishwash left ajar. Finally, we had to add batteries to the ceiling fan remote to get it to work. They sent maintenance person out to look, but he was unable to solve, but we did. The owners were still responsive to our concerns so no real complaint here, but maybe they could update their house guide for these potential problems (and maybe add a bit on how to get to TV listings).
