What: A sweet one or two-person apartment that backs on an alley — what the English call a mews house — hiding in plain sight at the very heart of Mt. Vernon. The agent has several offers after the open house last Sunday, so don’t wait if you’re at all interested. For peace, privacy and a bit of luxury (the glamorous entrance of the Mt. Vernon Place mansions) this little place offers a lot at a relatively low price point.

What the interior lacks in architectural detail is richly compensated for by the beautiful ornate facade of the carriage house and courtyard.
