    ESSENCE Live authentically. Colonial bungalow on a corner lot, freshly reimagined without losing its soul — tapered white columns, a gambrel roofline, and a deep covered porch that practically demands a morning coffee and nowhere to be. Hardwood floors span across bright, open rooms that unspool naturally — living area to dining nook to a chef's kitchen that means business. The primary suite is a genuine retreat: sloped ceilings, a walk-in, and a bathroom renovated with real intention. Freestanding soaking tub, gridded glass shower, double vanity, and matte black fixtures that pull it all together. The finished lower level provides a second living area, additional closets, and direct access to a fenced-in yard with mature trees overhead and a back deck connecting it all. Cultivate your existence. The art of uniting human and home. LOCAL FLAVOR AND PROVISIONS Grocery shopping at Whole Foods Market. Favorite in town dining at Charleston Restaurant, Petit Louis Bistro, Ce-Ce's, Woodberry Tavern and Clavel. OUTINGS AND LEISURES If you love the outdoors… Overlooking the scenic Lake Roland is 500 acres of park, two historic sites and a rare environmentally-sensitive ecosystem home to many endangered species of flora and fauna. Hiking trails fan out from the nature center, picnic pavilions, playground and Paw Point Dog Park. Convenient to the BMA and The Walter's Art Museum, and the American Visionary Arts Museum. Walk through Wyman Park Dell or visit the Sherwood Gardens for spring tulip viewing. PROXIMITY Easy access to the I-83 on ramp, about 13 minutes to Hampden. Downtown Baltimore's Inner Harbor and the National Aquarium are about 20-30 minutes away. Johns Hopkins Hospital is about 23 minutes away. Approximately 42 minutes to BWI and 17 minutes to Penn Station. REGION This area is a vibrant, diverse hub home to the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus.
