Room for Rent – High-Ceiling Penthouse Condo with City Views, Professionals Only

Quiet, Professional Penthouse Share – National Landing / Potomac Yard (Parking Included)

I’m renting a bedroom in my penthouse-level 2BR/2BA + den condo in National Landing / Potomac Yard, ideal for a working professional who wants a calm, well-located home with easy access to DC, Arlington, and Alexandria.

Building & Neighborhood

The condo is in The Eclipse on Center Park (Via Eclipse) – a secure, quiet condo building with mostly high-income professionals and strong HOA standards.

Key fob access + guest callbox

Concierge and package room

Outdoor pool, gym, community room, and rooftop

Quiet hours start at 10 p.m. and are enforced

You can walk to a major shopping center with Target, HomeGoods, Amazon Fresh, Best Buy, Total Wine, and lots of restaurants and cafes, plus multiple grocery options nearby.

< 1 mile to DCA (walkable or 5-minute drive)

~10 minutes (off-peak) to the National Mall and Old Town Alexandria

~30 minutes to most major DMV destinations

Free DASH bus service, Metro access, and easy rideshare

The Condo

~1,300 sq ft 2BR / 2BA + den

6th floor, end-cap, penthouse level – no one above you

High ceilings (~100"+)

Very large windows in the bedrooms

Floor-to-ceiling windows and doors in the living area opening to a huge wraparound balcony

The balcony has panoramic views of the Washington Monument, Capitol, National Harbor/MGM, the Maryland shoreline, and the Masonic Temple in Old Town – amazing for fireworks, sunsets, and just relaxing.

Inside:

In-unit washer/dryer

Central air & heat

Full kitchen with dishwasher and newer appliances (≤3 years old)

Smart home setup, strong Wi-Fi

Balcony with heat lamp and umbrella

Plants and cozy decor – it feels like a home, not a sterile crashpad

Your Space

Private bedroom, minimally furnished and already decorated

Can be furnished or cleared out – if you want it empty, I’ll handle removal and you’d cover the removal cost

You’ll use the main hallway bathroom, which also serves as the guest bathroom when people are over

Optional large private storage unit for $80–$100/month

For safety, there are cameras in the shared living room and entry hallway only. There are no cameras in any bedrooms or bathrooms.

Sound Environment – Read This If You’re Noise-Sensitive

This is city living, not the countryside.

You will hear:

Planes from DCA

Helicopters overhead

Background noise from the Metro and freight trains

Most people experience it as normal urban white noise and don’t mind it. But if you’re a very light sleeper who needs absolute silence, this apartment will not feel good to you.

If you’re okay with city soundscape + quiet building, you’ll be fine here.
If you need pin-drop silence, this will not be a fit.

Professional Cleaning

We have professional cleaners twice a month, included in utilities:

Common areas (kitchen, living room, floors, bathrooms) are cleaned

Your bedroom can be included for light cleaning – dusting, vacuum/mopping, and linen changes if you want

They don’t pick up clutter or clothes, so your room still needs to be reasonably tidy

Rent & Terms

$2,000/month, parking included

Security deposit: $2,000

Due at signing: first month’s rent + deposit

Utilities split 50/50, including twice-monthly professional cleaning

Optional storage unit: $80–$100/month

Minimum stay: 6–12 months

No smoking, no drugs, no loud parties

Pets

I’m open to well-behaved pets, especially a friendly dog, subject to building rules.

We’ll talk through size, temperament, barking, and condo regulations

You’re 100% responsible for walking, cleanup, care, and arrangements when you travel

There may be a pet deposit and/or small monthly pet fee, depending on the pet and building rules

About Me

I’m a mid-40s professional woman who works from home. I like my home calm, cozy, and welcoming – think plants, balcony time, good meals, and occasional small dinner parties or cocktails with friends, not chaos or randoms every night.

I have a chronic health/autoimmune condition, so I’m careful about germs, wear masks in some situations, and really want a roommate who respects that and is:

Up-to-date on standard vaccinations (COVID, flu, etc.)

Reasonable about illness and public health

I’m quiet in terms of drama and energy – no yelling, no fights, no messy life chaos – but I’m not a ghost: I’m up early, I move around, cook, and sometimes I drop things. Overlay that with planes/helicopters/trains and this is not the right home for someone who needs total silence.

Socially/politically, I lean progressive, care about equity, and want a space that’s safe and affirming for women, LGBTQ+ folks, and people of all backgrounds.

Ideal Roommate (Professional)

Working professional with stable income

Pays rent on time and communicates like an adult

Cleans up after themselves in the kitchen and common areas

Up-to-date on vaccinations and okay with occasional masking / health precautions

Values respect, consent, and inclusivity

If you’re into misogynistic “red pill” content, anti-vax rhetoric, conspiracy stuff, or political rage as a personality trait, this will not be a fit

Not a very light sleeper; comfortable with city noise in a quiet building

Low to normal guest traffic; no drama, no revolving door of people

If this sounds like you, message me with:

What you do for work + your typical schedule (WFH, hybrid, in-office)

Your ideal move-in date and how long you want to stay

Any pet info, if relevant

Anything important about how you live at home (sleep schedule, cooking, guests)

Then we can hop on a short video call and see if it feels like a fit for both of us.
