Room Description

$1,214/mo Private Room 1427 W St NW Meridian Hill / U Street Corridor
Spacious private bedroom on the top (3rd) floor of a classic 1890s DC rowhouse at 1427 W St NW one of DC's liveliest, most social group houses. This is a big room for the house, with great natural light and a street-facing view through the original tall windows with wood shutters. Hardwood floors throughout, a full closet, and plenty of room for a bed, desk, and dresser. Bathroom is shared with the rest of the 3rd floor.

The house itself has real character original fireplaces (decorative), large windows, pocket doors, and classic rowhouse charm combined with modern conveniences: central heat/AC, a fully equipped kitchen with multiple refrigerators, in-unit laundry (two washer/dryer sets), and a backyard with a grill and fire pit that gets real use. This is a genuinely social house residents know each other, hang out in the common spaces and yard, and it has a reputation as one of the more fun houses in the portfolio. Also a good fit for someone who wants their own private room and quiet but still likes a house with energy.

    "I would not suggest the U Street Corridor for families, especially in which the children are very young. While it is bustling and has many urban amenities, the neighborhood might be difficult to navigate or live in with young children."
