Sojourn Grand Jewel w/ Chef's Kitchen near Capitol
Summary: Begin your day with coffee on the private back patio, both perfect for unwinding and enjoying the moment. Experience historic elegance at this restored Richardsonian Romanesque Victorian on one of Capitol Hill’s most coveted streets. This nearly 5,000 sq ft home blends original grandeur with modern luxury—heated bathroom floors, a modern chef’s kitchen, and spacious entertaining areas—just steps from the best of Washington, D.C. *Please note only 3500 square feet of the home is available through January 1, 2026. Two bedroom and two bathrooms will be opened for use January 1, 2026*
The Space: Welcome to your Capitol Hill retreat. This custom-designed, four-level Richardsonian Romanesque Victorian blends 19th-century craftsmanship with modern luxury. Two spacious bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths (soon to be four bedrooms), and spa-like amenities set the tone—heated floors and towel racks in every bath, plus a primary suite with soaking tub and steam shower.
The chef’s kitchen is a dream: Viking range, dual dishwashers, farmhouse sink, separate ice maker, and a working grill built into the original brick fireplace. Multiple living areas, a powder room, and curated art fill the main level, while the lower level—with tall ceilings, heated floors, a built-in bar, and full bath—is made for entertaining or a potential private suite.
Large bay windows flood the home with light, and three living spaces provide room to unwind.
Bedrooms feature Garnier linens and down bedding; baths are stocked with plush Frette towels and Lather soaps. As with every Sojourn property, enjoy artisanal coffee, premium bath essentials, seamless self check-in, ultra-fast WiFi, and 24/7 guest support.
Step outside to a fully fenced deck for morning coffee or evening wine. From its stately stone façade to its curated interiors, this is more than a stay—it’s a piece of Washington’s living history
Guest Access: Our home is contactless seamless and easy self check in. A code will be set for you and shared 48 hours before your arrival.
The Neighborhood: Welcome to the heart of Washington, D.C., where cobblestone charm and Capitol grandeur come together in one of the city's most iconic neighborhoods. Nestled in the historic folds of Capitol Hill, this home offers the perfect balance of timeless architecture, cultural vibrancy, and everyday convenience. Mornings begin with the hum of community at Eastern Market, where stalls overflow with fresh produce, handmade treasures, and the scent of warm pastries drifting through the air. A short walk brings you to the original Ted’s Bulletin on 8th Street, where homemade Pop-Tarts and all-day brunch invite you to linger a little longer. From there, the day is yours to shape. Explore the grand reading rooms of the Library of Congress, relax in leafy parks and shaded gardens, or take in the view of the majestic U.S. Capitol building, a must-see that rises proudly just blocks away. Evenings might find you at Ambar, savoring bold Balkan small plates and cocktails that sparkle with unexpected flavor. With three Metro stations just minutes away and a neighborhood that rewards every step, every destination feels close and every moment feels curated. In Capitol Hill, you’re not just finding a place to live, you’re stepping into a story rich with walkability, wonder, and the kind of D.C. magic that turns the everyday into something unforgettable.
