Super modern penthouse in Shaw

Summary:
This magazine-worthy 2-level, 2BR/2BA home features sunny bedrooms, modern furniture and decor, a gorgeous open kitchen and dining area, and a large roof deck for entertaining! You're just blocks to all the fun of the U-Street corridor, plus you're close to the Convention Center and the National Mall too. Within just two blocks, there are tons of restaurants and entertainment options, and a Whole Foods too. The home has been renovated with fun details and lots of unique features.

The Space:
You'll love the modern design of the living space and the decor- it's straight out of Dwell magazine! Plus the two-story living room is flooded with light from huge windows.

Guest Access:
You'll have easy access to the property 24/7 through our electronic lock, which generates a unique code for each guest that automatically expires upon their departure and won't work before their arrival.

The Neighborhood:
Shaw/U-Street Corridor is a historic DC neighborhood with green parks, brick sidewalks and lots of historic rowhomes. There are tons of restaurants, bars and coffeeshops, plus nightlife, Metro and the Convention Center, all within blocks. Please note- this is an urban center and there is noise, and there are people of every type all around you. Please be open minded and aware of your surroundings.

Getting Around:
Metro is two blocks away at 10th and U Street, plus buses go in front of the house, rent a bike using the Lyft and Uber apps, or use Lyft or Uber to get a private car. But you can easily walk just about anywhere you want to go as well, since you are so centrally located.

Our family of four - mom, dad 2 teens - enjoyed this place immensely! The host is fantastic! The second bedroom has two beds which sealed the deal when we found it online. The other reviews were very accurate - clean, modern, comfortable - with all the amenities you could desire. We did not cook anything other than eggs for breakfast so I can’t speak to the kitchen at any length. The rooftop was really fun for our teens, especially late at night. The neighborhood could be described as “up and coming” or as a colleague described it as “it’s a block by block situation.” We are not light sleepers and hail from a big city. Each night, we fell asleep to the sounds of police sirens. There are homeless sleeping in the shadows of the neighboring stores. To be clear, we had zero negative interactions with anyone. We can roll with that - it’s not a unique problem to DC. or this area. But something you might want to know.
