Room details
Four Sunny Furnished Rooms in Quiet All-Female NW DC Petworth House
-- Have your pick of four fully furnished, sunny rooms in a clean, quiet and renovated Petworth row house shared by professional women. This is a good fit for someone who values privacy and independence at home and prefers a peaceful household over a highly social roommate environment.
-- You would be one of four women sharing the 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath main portion of the house. I'm the landlord, a former Reuters journalist, and I live separately in the basement suite with my toddler.
-- All rooms are available now, and September move-in dates are OK too. Utilities are shared equally and averaged about $125 in the winter months. Solar panels keep our electric bills low. Monthly maid cleaning is $35 per person.
-- Two of the rooms have private sitting areas, and all rooms have good closet space, dressers, desks/chairs, Roku TVs and complete linens. The house has uncluttered, fully furnished common areas, a fully equipped kitchen, free washer/dryer, powerful internet and a sunny front porch for the exclusive use of tenants.
-- We're less than a mile's walk from the Green and Yellow lines at Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro and one block from express and local buses. Walk to Safeway, CVS, Yes! Organic Market, and the many Petworth restaurants and cafes along Georgia Ave, Upshur St, 14th St and Kennedy St.
-- The household is intentionally quiet and independent. Housemates are friendly and considerate but generally lead their own lives. It's a good fit for someone who enjoys coming home after a busy day, having her own space and being able to relax.
-- To help maintain that sense of tranquility, the house has a no-overnight-guests policy, and occasional daytime guests are limited to weekends. This has helped keep the home a quiet refuge for everyone living here. No parties, smoking or drugs, and no pets.
-- One-year lease preferred but 6 months is OK too.
-- If you value a quiet, clean, private and independent home life, please TEXT me with a short introduction about yourself. I can send you the virtual tour and, if you'd like, schedule a video call before an in-person tour. Standard credit/background screening and proof of employment and income are required. Thanks!
