This delightful apartment is on the ground floor of a large single family house in a charming neighborhood, just 2 blocks from the center of Takoma Park, a 15 minute walk to the Metro. With its open floor plan, you will enjoy the large living room and windowed alcove, a fully-equipped kitchen, dining room and ample-sized bedroom with wall-to-wall closets. There is a separate entrance and laundry room. The house has a large front yard, with shade trees and nice gardens. The space All of the spaces of the apartment are separate from the rest of the house. The laundry room is all yours. You are welcome to enjoy the front yard, and there is a little sitting area just outside the front door (though the mosquitos may send you indoors!) The front of the living room has an inviting little nook with a small desk, which makes a great place to read or work on your computer. The apartment has a wonderful combination of feeling spacious and cozy at the same time. The bed in the bedroom is a queen size bed. We also have 2 twin-size very thick floor mattresses and there is plenty of comfortable space to lay them out in the living room for the night. Guest access There is a separate entrance to the apartment. The apartment is completely separate from the rest of the house. You have the apartment and its adjoining laundry room to yourself. You are welcome to enjoy the yard, provided you are comfortable with sharing with the folks living upstairs. Other things to note Please note that this apartment is below a house, which we also rent out short-term. There is going to be the normal noise of footsteps, and at times you will hear more sounds. If you are sensitive to this kind or noise, this apartment would not be for you! License # BCA-101579
