About the property

This cozy English basement apartment has been fully renovated in a mid-century modern style. It's a cute and colorful space with a fully stocked kitchen, very comfortable queen bedrooms and modern bathroom. It is also just a few minute metro, drive, or uber to all of DC’s main monuments. With popular bars and restaurants just a short walk away, this apartment's 600 sq. ft. 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout is ideal for a weekend getaway.

PLEASE NOTE: This English basement apartment is a subterranean unit with private front and rear entrance, and there is a fully separate 3 bedroom / 1.5 bathroom unit above. Please check our profile if you're interested in renting the upstairs unit, or the combined 5 bedroom house. Due to the proximity of units we require quiet hours after 10PM, if you have any issues we are just a message away!

There is access to a shared rear patio behind the home via the rear door.

I give my guests space but am available when needed.
I am here for you during your stay, but our level of interaction is up to you. I'm only a phone call/message away. You will be able to check yourselves in upon arrival with your own key code which works on both the front and rear door lock.

Two of Washington DC's most talked about new restaurants are on the same block as the townhouse. Call Your Mother is famous for their amazing bagels and sandwiches. Tabla offers amazing Georgian inspired cuisine from their award winning chef. Located in the Columbia Heights area 10 min. away from the National Mall, Smithsonian and Downtown DC. Ideal for tourists who love to dine, explore nightlife and sightseeing.

We had a wonderful stay! The host was friendly, responsive, and made the entire experience easy from check-in to check-out. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and we especially appreciated how safe and convenient the location was. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others looking for a great place to stay.

This place is excellent. The location is perfect (do not skip the bagel at the corner). The rooms were comfortable, and the bathroom was spotless. Perfect place and price!

Had a great stay at District Cottage. The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was convenient, and the atmosphere made it easy to relax and feel at home. Communication was smooth throughout the stay, and everything was well prepared upon arrival. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay, and I would stay here again in the future.
