The home rests on a lovely tree lined street, a short walk (just over 10 minutes) from the Shaw-Howard University Station (where you have access to the yellow and green lines), and just over 15 minutes from the NoMa-Gallaudet U New York Ave Station (where you have access to the red line metro). There is also a convenient bus (70/79) that can take you directly to the MALL. The location is the epicenter of DC’s music and dining scene, always the place to be seen in D.C! Walk up Florida Avenue and catch a wide range of music shows at the historic Howard Theater, or a few more blocks to the famous “9:30 Club”. A short distance in either direction takes you to the Right Proper Brew Pub, the Shaw Tavern, Bistro Boehm, Shaw Library and a bucketful of coffee houses, fitness centers and “pop-up” eating and entertainment venues. Guests will be a stone`s throw from the U Street Corridor and 14th St, just minutes away on foot from all the fabulous restaurants bars and shopping that this hip neighborhood has to offer. Grocery stores, pharmacy and every other essential are just a few minutes’ walk from the home.

No need for a car at this location! With the Shaw-Howard Metro (Green and Yellow lines) just a few blocks away, you can be at the National Mall, White House, the Capitol, Monuments and Museums, The Wharf or practically any place else in the city in 20/25 minutes or less. Prefer something more active? Most central Washington DC features are all within walking. Several Capital Bikesharesare located short strolls away; they offer bike rentals by the hour at excellent rates - a truly awesome way to explore the city, the Potomac Tow Path, the Anacostia Waterfront, and nearby Virginia and Maryland! .
