Upon entering, you'll find a well-lit living space with strategically placed recessed lighting, creating a bright and inviting ambiance. The living area features an open-concept layout, with a seamless flow into a modern, efficient kitchen with high-end, stainless steel appliances and ample counter and cabinet space. The well-appointed bedroom provides a comfortable sanctuary with a spacious closet and a queen-sized bed. The bathroom is elegantly designed with contemporary fixtures and a large walk-in shower. This apartment also includes a high-capacity washer and dryer and dishwasher for your convenience. The design of this English basement apartment– completely remodeled in 2022– maximizes comfort and style.
For outdoor enjoyment, one of the unit’s two private entrances opens onto a private outdoor area with seating for two. Directly behind the home is Crispus Attucks Park, a community-owned and managed park known as “Bloomingdale’s Secret Garden” because it is hidden back from the streets. The Park offers year-round activities such as outdoor film nights, yoga classes, community days and dog costume contests. The apartment is a short walk from Bloomingdale's best restaurants and bars- DC's famous Red Hen Restaurant, Big Bear Cafe and Boundary Stone. There is a farmer’s market every Sunday, and a wonderful yoga studio, Yoga District, a few blocks away.
In addition to the amenities listed above, this home also has the following: high quality linens, luxury bath products, iron, ironing board, laundry basket, laundry detergent pods, dishwasher detergent pods, dish soap, toaster, tea kettle, coffee maker, sink garbage disposal, compost bin (outside) and electric vehicle charger in the back driveway (coordinate use with Sojourn). The kitchen is fully stocked with dinnerware, cookware, servingware, utensils, spices, tea, coffee, balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and basic cleaning supplies (under the sink). There are extra dining chairs and two portable camping chairs (rockers) stored in the large closet leading upstairs. There are two umbrellas, a yoga mat and picnic blanket at the back entrance.
Our home offers contactless, seamless and easy self check in. You will receive your personal check-in code 48 hours before your arrival. At Sojourn, we take your happiness and comfort seriously. No request is too big or too small for our team and we strive to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. Don't hesitate to ask.
You might recognize Bloomingdale’s unique architecture from the popular TV series House of Cards’ opening credits, featuring colorful townhomes with pointed spires. The neighborhood is known as the home of historic African-American leaders of America’s civil rights movement, and combines a residential feel with cultural attractions, fine dining and nightlife.

Perfect for two
The interior is modern and nicely decorated. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was equipped with all items we needed. The fridge ice and water dispenser are high-tech. The bathroom and shower are very nice, but water pressure is low. There were many black flies and fruit flies at the entry, which would sneak in when we opened the doors. Overall, the property provided the perfect spot for a week, including a cute park and walkable neighborhood.Show more
