Good to know

This comfortable first-floor flat is located in a classic brick duplex and offers a thoughtfully designed space ideal for both short and extended stays. Recently fully remodeled, the home blends modern updates with preserved historic character. Most notably the original hardwood floors, which have been intentionally maintained to honor the home’s 1920s charm. As with many vintage homes, you may notice some natural creaking and light sound transfer between levels, adding to its authentic character. The living room is bright and inviting, creating a cozy space to relax, unwind, or enjoy TV. The kitchen is equipped with essential appliances, cookware, and dining space. Perfect for preparing simple meals during your stay. The first two bedrooms feature comfortable king beds with soft linens, blackout curtains, and ample storage to ensure restful nights. The third bedroom includes a twin bed and its own TV, offering a flexible space for additional guests or a quiet retreat. The bathroom is clean and well maintained, stocked with basic essentials for your convenience. Guests enjoy private access to the entire first-floor unit. The only shared space is the basement, where the washer and dryer are located; machines are clearly labeled for upper- and lower-level use to keep things easy and organized. The home also includes high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and driveway parking. Conveniently located, this home is a great option for Navy families attending graduations or trainings, as well as guests seeking a comfortable, private stay with a blend of modern updates and historic charm.
