Natural light pours through the large windows, making mornings cheerful and afternoons perfect for relaxing or catching up on emails at the desk. In the evening, unwind on the sofa with a movie, enjoy dinner at home, or stroll through the quiet, tree-lined streets of Brookland. A historic DC neighborhood known for its peaceful vibe, friendly neighbors, and easy access to downtown.

A Neighborhood with Character

Brookland is one of DC’s best kept secrets, close to everything, yet blissfully calm.

1 block to the G8 Metro Bus, with direct stops to Catholic University of America (CUA) and downtown DC.

1.5-mile walk to the CUA Metro Station for easy connections throughout the city.

2.0 miles to Washington Hospital Center, Children’s National, and MedStar, ideal for visiting medical professionals or family members.

Quick access to restaurants, coffee shops, and local parks nearby.

Short Uber or Metro ride to Union Station, Capitol Hill, Downtown DC, and all the iconic museums and monuments DC has to offer.

Brookland feels like a small town within the city, charming, residential, and full of character. You can start your morning with coffee from nearby Zekes café, take a walk past local art studios, and be downtown in minutes.

Pet Friendly

We understand that pets are family, too! Well-behaved dogs are welcome in our ADU. The neighborhood is great for walks, with sidewalks, parks, and shaded streets nearby.
