Unique Furnished Housing in DC

It's nearly that hot, festive time of the year again: The 4th of July is next week! There's nothing quite like the 4th of July in DC, and as DC enthusiasts, we're happy to share our favorite places around town to catch the fireworks and enjoy parades. The weather will be hot, so bring plenty of water wherever you go! Here are a few of our suggestions for how to celebrate the 4th:   Begin the day by enjoying local parades around the city, including the Barracks Row/Capitol Hill parade (begins at 8th and I Streets Southeast), the National Independence Day Parade (which travels along part of Constitution Avenue) and the Palisades Parade in NW. 

Yet another reason to love Dupont Circle: a third Philz Coffee in DC arrives there soon. One of the many reasons we love Philz so much is that each cup of coffee they brew is handcrafted one at a time. We appreciate that commitment to tailored attention to detail, which is what we strive for when we help you find a rental property in DC. They're one of our favorite ways to start the day--or take an afternoon coffee break. Have you been to a Philz Coffee before? If not, where do you go for your coffee? Via Prince of Petworth

In the Netherlands, they’ve turned an old office building into student housing inspired by tiny homes, all with a kitchen, a bathroom, sleeping arrangements, and storage. There are examples of this taking place in a few buildings in DC already. While Attache doesn’t currently have any tiny house properties, we’re always looking to stay relevant in the changing housing landscape. Tiny house (or regular house) property owners can reach out to us at

Just keeping it all in the family business—Jen is married to Attache’s founder Tim. As the founder of Attache Real Estate, Jen knows the DC housing market from her 23 years in the city. Making Dupont Circle her home, Jen’s favorite spots in DC include visiting the Lincoln Memorial at sunrise (that perfect eastern view from the memorial is unparalleled in DC) and escaping the city heat to walk along the Billy Goat Trail.

At different Smithsonians, which include some of our Nation’s greatest treasures, you can find robots named “Pepper” helping you through the museums as a sort of "futuristic docent". When you see one of them, intera...

Supporting local is one of Team Attache's favorite things to do. Last week we went to The Board Room (where they have a wall full of board games) in Dupont Circle, just around the corner from Attache HQ, for a happy hour and enjoyed one of the first warm days of spring with some of our guests. We invited our friend Mike from introbooth, a local startup that makes digit...

So this just arrived....more information on our new all-electric Rickshaw to come....

A couple highlights from 2017 that seem blog-post worthy: We added amazing team-members Kevin Horrocks, Ken Lozada and Chris Mudd to our tribe. Tim Touchette was interviewed on a Real Estate Investment podcast https://www.casmoncapital.com/single-post/2017/12/26/Corporate-Housing-and-Furn...

We were able to share a feast of gratitude and culinary aptitude this week in the Attache offices. Everyone brought in a favorite dish - from a five cheese mac and cheese dish, a seven-layer dip to gravy-less mashed potatoes and authentic Italian Tiramisu. We all took turns expressing what we appreciated in life and one member made a surprise gratitude announcement that a new baby is on the way! Happy Thanksgiving!
