4127 4th St NW, Washington, DC 20011

We live abroad and are renting our furnished* family home on a beautiful block in Petworth. We are seeking a renter who is looking to sign a 6-9 month lease, as we plan to return home in Summer/Fall 2025. The house: Just turned 100, but you wouldn't know it. Very well maintained and updated by us and other recent owners. The top floor includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a light-filled bonus space that we use as an office. The main floor is the perfect combo of open-concept and independent spaces, meaning you can easily carry on a conversation from room to room but also aren't on top of one another. Main level also includes a powder room and a bonus space that we use as a play area/additional sitting room. The basement has one bedroom (with a door, armoire, and lots of sunshine), bathroom, laundry, and a large open area that we use as a media room. It's perfect for guests that come to town that want their own space. The backyard is terraced and the usable area is quite small, but sufficient for a family dinner outside! The front porch is a great hang-out spot where we love to sit and relax. Street parking is generally plentiful and easy, though we do have a parking spot in the backyard that serves as off-street parking if you'd like. The neighborhood/street: One of the top neighborhoods in DC, especially for families. The house is just a few blocks from a great beer bar, coffee shop, several restaurants, a park with huge playground, weekly farmers market, a local gym, historical landmarks (Lincoln's Cottage!), and the Metro/several bus lines (Georgia Avenue/Petworth Metro station is a ~12 minute walk). Both attached neighbors are very friendly. The block is a mixture of families with young kids and folks who have been on the block for multiple decades. Other notes: - *The house is almost entirely furnished as seen in pictures. Our preference is to rent it furnished, but we are open to moving the furnishings out for an additional fee to be discussed (as we'd be paying for storage). - We use a local professional company for quick addressing of maintenance issues as we are in a different time zone, but will be very reachable for other communication needs. - As this is our family home that we intend on returning to in the future, we're looking for someone who will really care for the space and be a friendly neighbor. - Pets: We're open to a renter with pets, but would like to consider on a case by case basis. - The lease will stipulate absolutely no smoking. Price: $4500, renter pays utilities including water, gas, electric and wi-fi if desired. Availability: Move in date would be January 1, 2025, though the current tenants (who are moving out because they are purchasing a home) and are vacating in early December, so there is some flexibility on the front end if you need it. Timeline: We will likely return to DC in late summer 2025, so are looking for a tenant who is looking to sign a 6-9 month lease. If you have specific flexibility needs or are looking for shorter/longer, feel free to reach out. Please note: We will not discriminate based on source of income of renter. No smoking. Renter pays all utilities.
