Parking:

Utilities:
Tenant responsible for water, gas and electric.

Available November 5th. Minimum 12 month lease. Application fee is $35 and includes a credit check. Security deposit equal to one month's rent due upon lease signing. Pets are gladly accepted!
Location:
Named the most "instagram-worthy" block in the city by the Washington Post, 12th Place is a friendly, quiet and historic block in the heart of the city. Over the years, each of the houses on 12th Place has been individually renovated, and now no two color schemes are identical - including their rainbow colors. You have two separate Michelin Star restaurants within two blocks away with Maydn and Rooster & Owl. Within one block you have La Colombe for your morning coffee, Franklin Hall for drinks with friends, and Streets Market for those last-minute grocery runs. Also convenient to everything the 14th Street Corridor and Logan Circle has to offer like Trader Joes, Whole Foods and more.
