Townhouse Information
   
University Townhouses

University townhouses surround the Georgetown campus along 36th, 37th, O, N, and Prospect Streets. Townhouses vary in size, levels, and capacity, and contain unique layout features. Some houses are designated as historic by the Georgetown Historical Society. While these houses serve as an alternative to on-campus residence buildings, townhouse residents remain conveniently close to campus and receive University maintenance services.

General Information
  • Townhouses generally house four and five students. A two, three, and eight-person house also may be available in the phases of housing selection.
  • Many houses have 2 or 3 levels, which may include basements or attics.
  • Townhouses are fully furnished and carpeted. Kitchens are equipped with dishwashers and full size washers and dryers.
  • Most townhouses do not have overhead lighting, except in the kitchen and bathroom areas. Students are therefore encouraged to bring their own lighting. Halogen torchiere lamps are prohibited.
  • For safety reasons, the fireplaces are blocked off, and attics may not be utilized in any of the townhouses. Unfinished basements are considered “unlivable space,” and are forbidden as sleeping areas. However, unfinished basements may be used as study areas, dressing areas, or TV rooms.
  • Many of the townhouses contain outdoor patios or porches.
  • All mail/packages are delivered directly to the townhouse rather than to an on campus RHO.
  • Because townhouses are not wired for Internet connection, computers with modem dial-up are required for access to the Internet.
  • Townhouse utilities are billed monthly to residents via Student  Accounts.
