    The Best of Bolton Hill! An absolute dreamy, expansive offering with SIX bedrooms and high ceilings, 1206 John Street’s original details have been meticulously preserved. Irreplaceable and priceless original details! Natural and magical light throughout from a skylight shaft and original, wavy glass windows. Original millwork and stairs, fireplace mantles, pocket doors, functioning transom windows, curved plaster walls, butler’s pantry turned half bath, and a surprise, built-in cocktail nook make this home exceptional. Restored and preserved by the previous owner, one of Baltimore’s premier heritage and preservationists, and lovingly brought to life with the current owners. ⁣ ⁣ Designer and Instagram worthy touches include Benjamin Moore Newburg Green dining room, custom wallpaper in the art room / office, a writer’s nook overlooking the light shaft with windows opening from each level, and a view of Baltimore’s ICONIC gingerbread block across the street. ⁣ ⁣ Recent updates include upper level laundry, energy updated to gas and oil tank removed, roof maintenance, and a blue stone English terrace with covered outdoor space for dining al fresco or napping in the middle of the city’s bustle. The home is in lower Bolton Hill – the closest you can get to all mass transportation and Mt. Vernon – perfect for local and DC commuters! ⁣ ⁣ *6 Fireplaces total are decorative and sold AS-IS.
