| This beautiful old federal front row house built in 1902 is
furnished with lovely family pieces from the 30s and 40s which give you the feeling of
grandmother's house. The house was originally designed with three rooms on each floor, and included indoor plumbing as well as electric lighting. In 1961, it was renovated, the kitchen relocated and the basement dug and transformed to a one bedroom apartment. |
| Nestled between the "Capitol South"
and "Eastern Market" metro stations, the house is a block and a
half south of Pennsylvania Avenue and just a few doors from the
police station. Eastern Market, a produce and farmers market, is just around the corner. The U.S. Capitol, Library of Congress, Supreme Court, and the Mall are just six blocks away. Tourmobiles are available from these locations. Local bus service is located just around the corner. Many restaurants, banks, cleaners, and shops are located within easy walking distance. |
