About This Home
Hi there! I’m so glad you found Nyumbani, a bright and cozy studio tucked away in Fort Totten, one of DC’s quiet, friendly neighborhoods. “Nyumbani” means home in Swahili, and that’s exactly what I hope this space feels like for you — a peaceful home base while you’re in the city. Whether you’re here for work or to explore DC’s sights, Nyumbani is the perfect place to relax after a busy day in the DMV. ?? About the Space: You’ll be staying in a spacious, well-lit basement studio with your own private entrance and bathroom. It’s fully equipped for a comfortable stay, including: A kitchenette with a refrigerator, air fryer, microwave, Keurig (with coffee!), kettle, toaster, Brita pitcher, plates, and cups. Access to my back patio grill if you feel like cooking outdoors. In-unit washer and dryer for your convenience. Smart TV with all your favorite streaming apps (Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, etc.). High-speed WiFi for work or streaming. ??? Sleeping Arrangements: 1 queen bed 1 queen air mattress (great for a second guest) Maximum occupancy: 2 guests ?? Location Highlights: 7-minute drive to MedStar and Children’s National Hospital 10-minute walk (or 5-minute bus ride) to Fort Totten Metro Station 20 minutes to Downtown DC by Uber or train Bus stop right outside the door! ?? Just a note — the studio doesn’t have a full kitchen (no stove or oven), but the kitchenette covers most day-to-day needs.

The small neighborhood of Fort Totten creates a peaceful, suburban-like oasis within Northeast Washington, D.C. Despite the neighborhood's suburban feel, you can reach downtown DC and the Maryland communities of Silver Spring and Takoma Park in just minutes from this area.
Primarily residential, the neighborhood prides itself on being tight-knit and family-friendly, with many residents having lived in their homes for several decades. Fort Totten's wealth of green space and canopy of mature trees add to the charm of the neighborhood’s distinctive homes, which range from Victorians, Tudors, and bungalows to semi-attached brick row houses.
