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. Unbeatable location: two to three blocks to the U Street Metro (Green/Yellow Lines), one block from Meridian Hill Park, and walking distance to the 14th Street corridor, U Street's restaurants and nightlife, Trader Joe's, CVS, and cafes. Minutes to Adams Morgan, Columbia Heights, Logan Circle, Dupont Circle, and Shaw. Terms: 12-month lease preferred, [confirm availability date]. First month's rent plus security deposit due at signing. No application fee. Guarantors accepted. Utilities split among housemates plus own share of Wi-Fi. Smoke-free. Pets: [confirm — cats allowed with approval per comparable listings in this house; no dogs without prior consent]. This housing provider complies with all applicable federal and District of Columbia fair housing laws, including protections related to lawful source of income. DM or email ****
