Nestled in the coveted Otterbein neighborhood, this circa-1820 3-story rowhome offers a rare blend of historic charm and modern livability. Boasting 2 bedrooms plus a loft, and 1.5 baths, the home is filled with character at every turn. Wide-plank original hardwood floors, exposed brick accents, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Sunlight pours through oversized windows with deep sills, highlighting the freshly painted interior, open staircase, and thoughtfully integrated built-ins, including a custom bookcase. The open kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a built-in dining banquette, and French doors that lead to an expansive brick patio and private garden oasis—complete with low-maintenance turf, ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings outdoors. Upstairs, the third-floor loft provides flexible space for a home office, studio, or guest retreat, with direct access to a private balcony. Located in one of Baltimore’s most desirable and well-preserved historic communities, this home boasts a walkability score of 93 and unbeatable convenience to the Light Rail, MARC, downtown, Federal Hill, Camden Yards, and M&T Bank Stadium. Bonus: a valuable Otterbein pool bond also conveys with the sale.
