English basement features high ceilings, built-in bookshelves, wood floors, cozy working fireplace, window reading nook, lots of natural light, washer and dryer, covered rear patio with view onto a charming backyard in quiet area behind home. Since no alley crosses behind the home, your rear patio and surrounding area feels like a mini-preserve on Capitol Hill. The bedroom is not large, but fits a double bed comfortably or a queen with a little finesse. It includes a small closet, and opens onto a lovely covered patio. Just a handful of residences stand nearer to the U.S. Capitol than this home.

It is also less than a block from several good restaurants. Whole Foods is a 5-minute walk. Just blocks from onramps to I-395 and other freeways, so travel is easy. 12 minutes to National Airport.
