About the House:
Constructed in the 1880’s, this house was designed by and became the personal home of Danish architect CE Burden famous for this and several other historic residences in Washington. The house stands elegantly facing Providence Park on a lovely street that is a few blocks from EVERYTHING!
This home was superbly renovated in early 2018. The renovation included all new top-shelf appliances in the kitchen and laundry room, 4 bathrooms, new windows, fresh paint and refinished floors. The house is replete with beautiful architectural details such as artisanal tile, 12-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, pocket doors, sky light, exposed brick walls, 4 decorative only fireplaces, en suite bathrooms, and elegant built-ins. The house has lots of natural light, AC, Wi-Fi, shaded back patio with grill, and lovely patio with outdoor dining space.
Kids love the parks; tourists love its proximity to the National Mall filled with museums, monuments, shops, and other sights; sports fans like to walk to baseball and soccer stadiums and bars; lobbyist and appointees like its proximity to the Capitol and House offices. We like best that it is a tree-covered neighborhood with excellent schools and a small town feel that is walkable to absolutely everything.
The Set-Up:
The house comfortably sleeps 7 in 3 bedrooms; each with their own en suite bathroom.
- 1st bedroom is the Master bedroom (third level). It has a queen size bed, fireplace, built in armoires, attached laundry, master bathroom, and wonderful view of the park.
- 2nd guest bedroom (third level) has a queen size bed, ample closet, custom built ins, en suite bathroom and view of the patio.
- 3rd guest bedroom (second level) sleeps three with a full-size bed, single bunk up top, 2 ample closets, en suite bathroom and view of the patio.
Living Room (second level) has large fireplace, lovely built-ins, and a magnificent view of the park.
First floor has an eat-in chef's kitchen with 6-burner gas stove, convection oven, top-of-the-line appliances, and gas fireplace with Spanish tile on those chilly winter mornings. The kitchen connects through French doors to a tree covered patio on one side and a separate dining room on the other --great for entertaining.
There is a full garage with an additional refrigerator, park chairs, and car parking.
Safety:
Due to the number of parks, proximity to the US Capitol, and the number of congressmen, senators & political appointees who nearby, this area is protected by no less than 4 different security agencies: US Capitol Police, US Park Police, the DC Police and the secret service.
About Us:
We love this neighborhood’s parks, great school a block away, its accessibility to everything coupled with the quietness of the block. No matter where we have lived or traveled, this is our favorite place to be. If you are a Foreign Service, military or other government family, we aim to be a soft-landing for families transitioning in or out of Washington, for change of station, training, medevac, or vacation.
Our Preferred Rental:
Our preference is for longer-term stays, ideally a month or more that accommodate families in transition. We accommodate shorter rentals, but really aim for this house to be a temporary home, a safe and soft landing for families moving to the area, transitioning from overseas, families on medevac, or government TDY. Contact me directly to discuss the rental.
