Aside from being so close to the United States Congress, Capitol Hill is the largest historic residential neighborhood in Washington DC, stretching easterly in front of the United States Capitol along wide avenues. It is one of the oldest residential communities in Washington, and, with roughly 35,000 people in just under 2 square miles (5 km2), it is also one of the most densely populated.
TONS of DC`s most sought after restaurants line the streets - ranging from German, Mexican, French and American - picky eaters should have no issue finding favorites. The neighborhood comes alive at night! With an array of bars, clubs and restaurants, folks can experience the the neighborhood in a totally different light once the sun goes down!
The home is nestled on a quiet tree lined street; so escaping the hustle and bustle of the Corridor is a non-issue. We`re also a short stroll from a lovely grassy refuge in the Historic Lincoln Park. The eastern end of the park includes two separate, enclosed play areas for young children. The grassy perimeter and central turf area are popular with neighborhood dogs and their owners.
You`re also a very short walk, bus, metro or Uber ride from a number of other neighborhoods not to be missed; including Union Market, Chinatown, Gallaudet University, and the Navy Yard.
Getting Around:
WALK to the United States Capitol in 20 minutes! Just a few blocks up Massachusetts Ave is DC`s hub of activity, Union Station, where you can catch the Red Line Metro. The D6 bus can take you there directly in under 15. There lay the major sights as well as tons of shops, restaurants and more. Downtown DC is a short metro ride away.
Other Things to Note:
Please be aware that the parking space is only large enough for a vehicle 179″ L x 73″ W x 65″ H (Toyota Rav4 is roughly the size)
