Artful DC Home - Enjoy Backyard - 16th St. Heights

Bright, charming, artful home on bus line leading directly to monuments & museums. You will love this place because it is our home (we only rent it a few weeks of the year when we are away). It's full of character and has everything you could need. Gourmet kitchen and rustic farm table. Expansive yard with fire pit, hammock, and outdoor dining area. Central AC. Free off-street parking. 1 block from trendy neighborhood bar, restaurant, and farmer's market.

The space
Enjoy Washington, DC in this charming, open concept, single family row house next to a bus line leading straight to the National Mall with its monuments and museums. Large back yard with shaded outdoor dining area for 6, large Weber grill, fire pit with Adirondack chairs, and a hammock. Off street parking for one car in back. 3 bedrooms, comfortably sleeps 7 in beds, 8 with one on a couch.

This 1916 row house is well-appointed with African and Asian accents and everything you need to enjoy your stay in style.

Main Floor: The kitchen is equipped with a gas range and dishwasher, and is fully stocked with dishes and glassware (we love to cook). We only rent this portion of our house when we are away -- otherwise it's our primary residence -- so you'll find the house full of character, stories, and all the pots and pans you might need to whip up a big dinner! The dining room table seats 8 easily at a beautiful wooden farm table made from our old family barn. Our living room on the main floor is a stunning place to curl up on the deep indigo sofa with a book and enjoy all the artwork and handicrafts from our world travels. And the front porch with comfy chairs or the outdoor, shaded dining area in the backyard are perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening cocktails. There is a full bathroom behind the kitchen, next to the French doors leading to the backyard.

Upstairs:
Room 1 – King Size Master with ensuite, newly renovated bathroom. Overlooks trees and the backyard, so is very quiet.
Room 2 – This room has a full bed and a single on top, as bunkbeds.
Room 3 – This family TV room features a deep, large couch with a huge ottoman. Bedding can be provided, if you plan to have someone in your party sleep here.

Finished Basement Guest Suite:
The lower level features a bright, charming, artful 1-bedroom guest suite with its own kitchenette, full bath, large screen TV, Bluetooth speaker, work station, laundry, refrigerator, and Central Air. Most of the year, when we are living at home in the top two floors, we rent the finished basement as a separate listing here on Airbnb.

Guest access
You have access to the entire house. The garage in the backyard is locked and not available to our guests.

Other things to note
Because we only rent our home infrequently, when we're away on vacation, you will find that our closets contain our clothing and effects. We will make an effort to clear some dresser drawers for you to store some of your clothes.
