$1,335 - CAP HILL - New Group House Forming Now - Walled Garden, Fireplace, EZ Parking + SOLAR 
Looking for housemates for bright, furnished bedrooms available in a beautiful, 3-bedroom house with walled garden on historic Capitol Hill
Available Tuesday, September 1, 2026. There is some flexibility on either side of this date.
This is an historic house with a beautiful, walled garden on a quiet block on Capitol Hill, south of H Street. Its an easy walk to both the Capitol and Union Station. Its between one and three blocks to Aldi, Whole Foods, Starbucks, CVS, Starbucks, cafes, bars and pubs. You will get by just fine without a car (its actually liberating!)
The house is fully furnished and equipped, including the available bedrooms.
The garden is a designated wildlife habitat. This is perfect for a housemate who would enjoy puttering in the garden, refreshing the water in the birdbath, filling the bird feeder, using the garden hose on the plants, or occasionally dropping fish food into the pond.
IMPORTANT
These rooms are for housemates who do not smoke or have a pet (allergies).
VIEWING
The fastest way for you to see the house is to text me, and I will call you back as quickly as I can. If you reply by email and include your phone number, I will text you as quickly as possible.
Please text at first, vs calling, because calling means your call may get lost in the vast number of spam calls I receive some days. No voicemails please. Text is best until I have you in my phone.
If you are texting from afar, I have photos and videos to share. Remember, text me first, and Ill call you right back from the same number. After this, Ill have you in my phone, and Ill know youre not a spam caller.

HOUSE
This charming, historic house is entered through a walled, English garden. Features include energy efficient windows, central heat and air, dishwasher, laundry room with full-sized washer and dryer, 9+ ceilings, crown molding, and marble fireplace (wood-burning).
It is a bonus that the entire side of the house opens into a beautiful, private garden that is a designated wildlife habitat. The garden is peaceful by day with both sun and shade, and magical by night with the garden lights glowing. The garden is already furnished and waiting for you to start enjoying it right away.
The walled garden includes:
- Several brick patios for dining and sitting,
- Pond with waterfall,
- Abundance of roses, flowering vines, and perennials,
- Bird bath (that gets used!), and
- Garden lights and tiki torches that illuminate the garden at night.
The garden is a fabulous place to enjoy coffee in the morning, a glass of wine in the evening, or invite a few friends over to cook out and eat dinner under the large, flowering tree full of twinkling lights.
UTILITIES
We have central heat and air. The utility accounts are electricity (AC), gas (heat), water/sewer, and wifi. A full roof of solar panels was installed in January 2025. Except for one month when the panels had extended snow cover, they have been producing enough electricity to cover all of our consumption. This means you can expect a monthly electricity bill of a $22 base charge, and we split this three ways.
BEDROOMS
The available bedrooms overlook the garden and are flooded with natural light. The bedrooms are furnished with a bed, bedside table, lamp, desk, chair, ceiling fan and window treatments. The common areas and the garden are also already furnished, and the kitchen is fully equipped. All youll need is your suitcase and your linens.
NEIGHBORHOOD
The street is a charming, one-block, tree-lined street on historic Capitol Hill. This one-block street is six blocks east of Union Station and one block south of vibrant H Street, with EASY and free parking. Anything for rent on this quiet, mews-like block is RARE.
Whole Foods, Aldi, Giant Food, CVS, Starbucks, plus myriad shops and cafes are just blocks away, as is anything else you could need.

TRANSPORTATION
Do you have a car? Parking is so easy that all three housemates can park in front of the house almost every night.
Do you not have a car? Live surrounded by convenient public transportation:
For those who use the Metro Red line, Union Station is a 12-minute walk.
For those who use the Metro Blue/Orange line, Eastern Market is a 20-minute walk, and a bus stop for a direct ride to the Eastern Market station is one block away.
This is a terrific location on Capitol Hill. The entire street is only one, mews-like block, and the large garden and walled, outdoor living space are a rare gem among historic rowhouses in all of DC!
