Storage shed for bikes. Close to Eastern Market, Barracks Row, Library of Congress, the Capitol, shops, restaurants, music, film, museums, grocery, and more. Cheerful and upbeat vibe, this apartment has hosted some greats in music history. Special neighborhood community: welcoming, social, quiet, caring, and fun. Sunrise from bedroom and sunset from kitchen. We love and have regularly hosted scholars and artists (Wilson Fellows, Carnegie Fellows, Kluge Fellows) and some greats in music and in music history. Looking for someone who will appreciate the cheerful and upbeat vibe! Special neighborhood community: welcoming, social, quiet, caring, and fun. If you think it's magical to hear the charming faint strains of "taps" played at dusk from Barracks row, and the award-winning HS marching band’s occasional rehearsal passing your window, you've found the right place! “This is a brilliant place to stay in Capitol Hill. Jo is an excellent host and really responsive. The apartment is big and roomy, and a 20-minute walk to the Capitol, or 10 minutes to the nearest metro at Eastern Market. I highly recommend staying here!” -Robin Bates, UK (Library of Congress Kluge Fellow), in first floor Old Corner Barbershop: https://www.sabbaticalhomes.com/rental/181688 “The apartment has both an excellent location and fantastic vibe. I spent one year and had one of the best stays for my fellowship year in Washington, DC. Jo was more than amazing and went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable. She is one of the best hosts/landlords I have had! She was also so very welcoming to my cat who accompanied me during the stay. The terrace garden and the sunny bedroom were just the touch of perfection that I did not know I needed! I cannot recommend the place and Jo enough! -Jayita Sarkar, Scotland (Carnegie Fellow) in 2nd Story: https://www.sabbaticalhomes.com/rental/175416 "We have had the pleasure of staying at both of Jojo's Capitol Hill apartments and you couldn’t ask for a better location or a sweeter place to stay! These beautiful apartments are within walking distance to DC landmark buildings, but perhaps equally as importantly, to restaurants, cafes, shops, and a lovely park. In thoughtfully appointed rooms featuring Americana artwork, her HillHouseDC apartments have everything you need for an inspired stay in Washington DC.” -Emma’s Revolution (multiple stays, 2021-2026) These and other tenants welcome questions from perspective tenants, contact info provided upon request.
