Room details
Spacious English basement room for rent in a beautiful townhouse in the glorious neighborhood of Hill East! The room for rent (pictured) is currently fully furnished with a king bed, dresser, desk, rug, bedside tables, and TV, as it has been used as a guest room for a couple years, but there's opportunity to redecorate or rearrange furniture depending on length of stay. The room is on the bottom floor of a three-floor townhouse, with a private bathroom and easy access to the common spaces and backyard. Two blocks away from the Potomac Ave metro stop, and close to a Safeway, TJs, and many great Cap Hill restaurants and bars. Washer-dryer in unit, and central air heat pump for AC and winter heating.
In taking over this room, you would be living with a guy in his early 30s who is in the office 4-5 days a week, travels often, has friends over occasionally, and is in and out of the home in the evenings and over weekends. His room is on the top floor with its own bathroom. He and the townhome owner are looking for a renter who is a kind, conscientious person mindful of keeping communal spaces tidy and clean.
The room is available for a short-term sublet or longer-term lease - some flexibility on duration currently. Rent is $1500, with utilities split between roommates including WiFi, water, gas, and electricity.

District law requires that a housing provider state that the housing provider will not refuse to rent a rental unit to a person because the person will provide the rental payment, in whole or in part, through a voucher for rental housing assistance provided by the District or federal government.
