This posting is for an English-basement type apartment in a single family home. So if you're tired of apartment buildings, roommates, noise, sharing laundry facilities, inadequate storage space, expensive or non-existent parking, being too far from a Metro subway stop, and similar hassles, then this private, separate-entry apartment may be for you! #1 GENERAL INFO: This is a modern, light-filled junior 1-bedroom English basement apartment in a beautiful, large, modern home on a very quiet tree-lined street just 2 blocks from Connecticut Ave -- your own private apartment with its own outside entrance and your own private parking space 25 feet from your door. You will have no hallways in a noisy large apartment building, no roommates, no endless searching for street parking, no sharing of a washer-dryer , etc. Minimum 10-month lease, available approximately October 6, 2025. Most past tenants have loved this place and stayed for multiple years! #2 APARTMENT DESCRIPTION (see photos below). The apartment is about 600 sq. ft. with high ceilings (8 ft. to 9 ft) and good natural light from windows, very different from many English basement apartments. The bedroom area is separated from the rest of the apartment by a 6-foot-high privacy architectural wall -- so it has an open feel, but also privacy. There is a small living room area, separate eating area, and a clean modern bathroom with sink, toilet, cabinets, and combined tub/shower. The kitchen and eating areas are tiled with high-grade Italian ceramic tile, and the living room and bedroom are carpeted. There's good closet space and storage space in the apartment, and you'll have a large storage closet in the garage (for luggage, skis and big items). You'll also have your own dedicated washer-dryer in the apartment utility room. A small private outdoor area provides space for you to put your own BBQ and even a table-for-two. The apartment is AVAILABLE UNFURNISHED OR PARTIALLY FURNISHED (no extra charge!) -- basic kitchen utensils and dishes, wooden dining table and 2 chairs, bedroom dresser, full-sized platform bed, etc. (but you need your own mattress). #3 NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION. We are in the Forest Hills neighborhood of NW DC on a quiet, tree-lined street (see picture below) near 30th St NW and Brandywine St NW, but just 2 blocks from Connecticut Ave NW and a short walk to the Van Ness / UDC Red Line Metro station for easy rail (or car or bus) access to AU or downtown DC or nearby Maryland. Also just 2 blocks from the Soapstone Valley running /hiking trail in Rock Creek Park. Walk 10 minutes to Giant Food, Golds Gym, cleaners, restaurants, banks, nice public tennis courts, etc: the convenience of DC, but not the hustle-bustle of a crowded, noisy, trafficked street. One prior tenant said, "I'm only 2 blocks from Connecticut Ave, but it feels like I'm in the country". #4 WHAT DOES THE RENT INCLUDE? The rent also include hi-speed FIOS wireless internet, all utilities (reasonable electric, water and gas use), and your own designated off-street parking just 25 feet from the apartment entry, and your own washer-dryer -- these extras could cost $250-$300 per month in other apartments. We have a small non-refundable move-in fee/move-out cleaning fee due when the lease is signed, plus a security deposit. There is also an optional maid/cleaning service twice per month (extra charge) (and preference will be given to someone who wants this option). #5 WHY IS THE RENT ONLY $1,475? We travel a lot, so we're looking for a reliable tenant who takes pride in living in a neat, clean, quiet, relaxing environment. Maximizing our rent is NOT our goal. But if you listen to loud music or loud TV, or if you smoke on the property, or if you like to be "under the influence", or if you expect a lot of guests in-and-out, then this rental is not for you. Finally, preference is given to a tenant who does minimal "cooking" -- we want to avoid food aromas that drift from the apartment to the upstairs part of the house (of course it's perfect if you make salads, sandwiches, cereals, yogurts, etc. and other food that doesn't really involve "cooking", AND you can add a small outdoor BBQ for cooking). #6 SHOWING THE APARTMENT AND AVAILABILITY: You can arrange for a private, un-rushed showing of the apartment by contacting us. We're usually very flexible to set up an APPOINTMENT. So please send us an email or call us so we can talk. #7 INFORMATION REQUESTED. When you contact us -- by phone or email -- please give us your contact info (name, email and/or phone), your desired move-in date, whether you prefer unfurnished or partially furnished (no extra cost), would you will use the reserved parking space (no extra cost), etc. Also, feel free to tell us a little about yourself (your hometown, or do you cook, do you enjoy traveling, etc.). SORRY, NO SMOKERS AND NO PETS (owners have pet allergies). AND IF YOU'RE A SCAMMER, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR OURS. Thanks for reading! This has been a great apartment for a number of prior tenants -- will you be next? See details about lease terms in main listing, and please look at the questions in item #7 that we'd like to discuss with potential renters.
