President Barack Obama and his family are planning to rent a house in the upscale Washington neighborhood of Kalorama, the National Journal reported.  

The first family is staying in D.C. for two years after Obama’s presidency wraps up in January so the family’s youngest, Sasha, can finish high school.

The neighborhood is located between Massachusetts Avenue NW and Embassy Row.  

Obama often remarks that his top priority once back in civilian life will be to take a walk alone. Though he will continue to have a Secret Service detail, Kalorama would provide the president many tree-lined suburban streets to traverse.
