    What's special

    Live in one unit and rent the other—or bring the whole family! Welcome to 221 E Lafayette Avenue, a beautifully maintained two-unit townhouse located in the heart of Greenmount West, one of Baltimore’s most beloved and artistic communities. Whether you’re looking for a home with income potential or space for multi-generational living, this property offers flexibility, comfort, and unbeatable location. The lower unit spans the entire first floor and finished basement, featuring 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a home office, and a large utility room—perfect for working from home or extra storage. The upper unit occupies the second and third floors with another 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and its own utility room. Each unit has its own separate entrance and offers abundant natural light, high ceilings, and thoughtful layouts. You’ll appreciate the practical updates including a 10-year-old roof, HVAC systems and water heaters that are only 5 years old, and fire-rated construction (no fire escape required!). The large rear parking pad provides off-street parking, and there’s typically easy on-street parking for the upper unit as well. But the real star is the location. Tucked in the center of the Station North Arts & Entertainment District, you’re surrounded by murals, music venues, theaters, studios, cafes, and galleries. Penn Station is just a 5-minute walk away, making commuting to D.C. or New York a breeze via Amtrak, MARC, or Light Rail. You’re also steps from the Purple Line Circulator, city bus routes, and bike lanes—so getting around Baltimore is easy and car-optional. Nature lovers will appreciate immediate access to the park directly behind the home, several green spaces nearby, and a large, fenced-in dog park just around the corner. Residents love the peaceful, tight-knit feel of Greenmount West—with friendly neighbors and a strong sense of community—while still being close to all the action in Mount Vernon, Charles Village, Remington, and downtown Baltimore. Whether you're looking to settle down, start fresh, or enjoy city living with extra space and income potential, 221 E Lafayette Ave is a rare opportunity to own a piece of a thriving, creative neighborhood that truly feels like home.
