Enjoy the best of city living in this attractive urban townhouse, ideally located just a one-minute walk from the popular Cross Street Market and all the neighborhood attractions it has to offer. From fresh seafood at Atlas Fish Market and cocktails at Cross Street Cocktails to gourmet ice cream at Taharka Brothers and a great burger at Southside Burger Bar, some of Baltimore's favorite local destinations are right outside your door. Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring attractive wood floors, a distinctive exposed brick accent wall, track lighting, and convenient storage tucked beneath the staircase. Just beyond is a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination, pedestal sink, and oversized mirror. As you continue toward the kitchen, you will appreciate the large pantry closet with multiple shelving units, providing excellent additional storage. The generously sized kitchen is larger than typically found in many city townhomes and offers plenty of cabinet space, a gas range and oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, stainless steel sink, and recessed lighting. It is a practical and comfortable space for everyday cooking and entertaining. The second level features two bedrooms, including a nicely sized secondary bedroom with carpeting, ceiling fan, and double closet with additional shelving. A conveniently located hall bathroom offers an oversized tiled shower and an attractive vanity with medicine cabinet. The spacious Primary Bedroom is a particularly appealing feature of this home. An entry area provides a closet and additional storage before leading through a distinctive brick archway into the sleeping quarters. From here, a door opens to a spiral staircase ascending to the newly refurbished rooftop deck. This wonderful outdoor retreat offers impressive city views to the west, east, and north—an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or take in the city skyline. Additional features include a well-lit basement with ample ceiling height, allowing you to walk comfortably upright, along with a convenient exterior access door that makes moving larger items in and out much easier. The lower level also houses the washer and dryer, 100-amp electrical service, 40-gallon gas water heater, and gas forced-air heating system with central air conditioning. The location is hard to beat! Enjoy an easy walk to Orioles Park at Camden Yards, M&T Bank Stadium, Cross Street Market, and an outstanding selection of neighborhood restaurants, bars, shops, and everyday conveniences. Whether you enjoy the energy of the city, dining out, catching a ballgame, or simply having so much within walking distance, this home offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy the very best of Baltimore's urban lifestyle.
