Need a central home away from home for 30 days or more? Completely independent light-filled basement apartment of a single family home in a nice neighborhood. Enjoy your own private entrance, private full-size laundry machines, stylish living & dining space, kitchenette, queen bedroom & full bathroom with soaker tub, & a bonus room/office. The kitchenette has a full refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, countertop oven & air fryer and counter cooktop. The space Located within a beautiful neighborhood. 5 minutes drive from the Vienna metro, I-66, Mosaic district, 14 miles west of DC, 10 miles to Dulles airport. Access to the apartment is by walking through the side yard to the backyard entrance. Guest has no access to the main house. The home is suitable for one individual, or two individuals that share one bed as the only bed is the queen bed in the 1 bedroom. No children other than infants please. The lower level apartment is a 100% independent space, but you will hear footsteps and ambient noise from above from our 4 children under 7 years old, particularly in the morning (6:30-9am) before we’re out and about, and early evening (4-8pm) before bed (or in the summer, throughout the day.) Thus, this space is wonderful for those who work outside of the home and those who don't mind the muffled sounds of a loving and rambunctious family moving above. Guest access The guest has full access to the private lower level apartment, and no access to the main home. The guest is welcome to use the shared backyard, which is shared with us. Please note this is a very family friendly neighborhood and our children and their friends will often be in the front and backyard as well. There is ample free parking on our street in front of the home for parking. You enter the lower level apartment by walking down a few steps alongside the exterior of the house to the backyard where your “front” entrance is, underneath the back deck (above ground.) The streets have sidewalks on both sides with multiple wooded trails accessible at the end of our street, and many enjoy walking throughout the neighborhood or on the paths. Other things to note Please note that this is a basement space and, as such, you will hear us and our 4 young kids under 7 years old above. If you are looking for a quiet place to do remote work or are bothered by passive noise above, we are not the best fit. This apartment is not a good fit for anyone who works from home, as you will hear ambient noise from above during the daytime. The home is on a very family friendly street. The guest suite has blinds on every window & door for your full privacy. There is plenty of parking available on the street in front of our home. The basement suite has no thermostat, so the guest will not be able to control the temperature. The home is set between 70 - 72 degrees.
