Kirk is a fourth-generation Washingtonian whose family has lived on Capitol Hill since the late 1800s, and where he continues to live today with his wife and two children. Kirk's Great-Grandmother, Margaret, purchased this 1890 Victorian home In 1905 to entice one of her two daughters to raise her own family in the neighborhood. Kirk's Great Aunt, Nell, and her husband, John, raised their 12 children in this home.

In 2008 at the behest of Kirk's 82-year-old cousin, Kirk's family purchased the house from relatives who had owned or lived in the house since 1905, and then they spent over two years meticulously restoring and renovating the home, blending old-world Victorian charm and ambiance with new world appliances and technology.

Today, Kirk's family, now a fifth generation of Washingtonians, are honored to offer you the opportunity to experience residential living in the newly updated guesthouse, right in the heart of our Nation's Capitol, at the Historic Eastern Market on Capitol Hill!

8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
The place was very clean. The location was great. I loved the balcony out back. It feels like you’re in the trees. I would agree with others that it could use a little updating, like with the furniture, pillows, etc. The host was probably one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He let us in early, when I showed up while he was still cleaning the place. If I were him I probably would have told me to get lost, but instead he allowed me to change and gain my bearings, then told us all about the history of the property and gave us food recs. A cool host goes a long way so even if for no other reason, I’d recommend this place. We also weren’t asked to do any convoluted cleaning etc upon checkout. We just took our things and left, so that was really nice.

Kitchen could use better (larger) coffee maker for people today like their coffee.We could not get the dishwasher to work above... the one below, it did not drain. Might be us not figuring it out... so we washed by hand.Very charming... historic... quiet location to metro was perfect for what we were doing in D.C. The walk to The Capitol was easy and not very far, restaurants along the route were of interest. The National Guardsmen and women were extremely informative and nice to talk to.
