Description

I’m a recently retired NPR correspondent and my wife is an author who will be a writer-in-residence at Stanford for the next two academic years. We ideally would like to do a home exchange over that period, but also would consider renting. We will have an EV auto that would need a place to charge.

Comments: Our home is in one of the most desirable and bucolic neighborhoods of the DC area. Supermarkets, restaurants, boutique shops and the Metro are all a short walk away. Great local schools, a tennis and swim club nearby, leafy walkways and friendly neighbors. It’s a mature suburb with stately homes, lots of EV’s, but little traffic.
