General overview

What our beloved house lacks in lavishness, it makes up in location, character, comfort and coziness. Enjoy city life with a suburban feel. In the nation’s capital, only minutes to the Metro’s red line that can take you anywhere in the city, and also a short walking distance to the picturesque, quirky downtown Takoma Park, Maryland.

The space

Cluttered but clean 3 bedrooms, one bathroom, and one packed play room/office/sun room in a 100-year-old house. Large windows throughout. Hundreds of board games and books. Comfy couch that opens to a full bed in the living room. Several plants that need watering. Grape vine & cherry tree in backyard, accompanied with chairs, a table and trampoline. Cable TV with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and HGTV access. Friendly neighborhood, corner lot, vegetable garden.

Guest access

large front and back yard, 3 bedrooms, 1 bath on second floor. Full-sized washer and dryer in basement.

Notes

The house is strictly vegetarian. You are welcome to use our pots, pans, dishes, and all utensitls, but we request no meat (beef, pork, poultry, fish) or rennet-based cheese.
