Carriage House on Capitol Hill

The Carriage House is located in the Historic District of Capitol Hill. The home is not period construction, but rather a new home built in 2003 and 2004. The owners have integrated many architectural details that are in Washington homes built at the turn of the 20th century. Some of these details include 12' ceiling heights, the central circular staircase, salvaged carved doors, stained glass windows, carved paneling for accents and a mix of antique and new furniture. With the luxury of new construction, modern baths, central heating and air-conditioning, and modern appliances ensure that guests enjoy a comfortable stay.

The first floor of the home includes the living and dining areas as well as the eat-in kitchen. A central courtyard and a back yard provide guests with extensive outdoor space.

Great Accommodations:

This home offers four guest rooms, all located on the second floor of the house and accessed by a grand spiral staircase. Each room is furnished with a queen-size bed and includes a private bath with large walk-in shower. Rooms include complimentary wireless Internet access, and TV with cable. A relaxed, continental style breakfast is available each morning from 7:30-9:30. Enjoy fresh coffee, select teas, local pastries, tasty cereals, seasonal fruit and a choice of juice. Guests are welcome to dine at the large kitchen island or - when the weather is right - in the private courtyard.

All four guest rooms have the same amenities, so in order to best accommodate guests' varied schedules, we cannot guarantee a specific room. However, if staying in a particular room is important to you, we will make every effort to place you accordingly. Just please let us know of your preference when you make your reservation.

Your hosts are long-time residents of Washington, who together with their son, welcome visitors to their home. The family includes a cat named Mimi who also calls the house her home. Your hosts allow Mimi minimal access to the guest rooms, however those with allergies should consider whether this B&B is right for them. Regretfully, children cannot be accommodated at the Carriage House itself, however, just across the courtyard, a separate facility - "The Coach House" can. The Coach House is a self-contained, 2-story Town House with about 850 sq. ft. of space including: 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, living/dining areas, kitchenette, and laundry facilities.
