THEY SAID YOU COULDN'T GET THIS IN BALTIMORE FOR UNDER 300K. 700 Belgian Ave · Baltimore, MD · 3 Bed · 3 Bath · $290,000 A waterfall kitchen island. Coffered ceilings. An electric fireplace on every floor. A private rooftop deck with string lights already hung. And a primary suite that feels like a hotel you never have to check out of. This is not a lipstick flip. 700 Belgian Avenue was taken down to the studs and rebuilt — new joists, new electric, new roof, new HVAC, new water heater, new waterproofing, new kitchen, new windows. Every system. Every surface. Nothing left for you to fix, replace, or stress about. The seller is even throwing in a home warranty. You literally just move in. The neighborhood? Pen Lucy is one of Baltimore's most established, multi-generational communities — tight-knit, multicultural, neighbors who actually know each other. You're minutes from Morgan State University, local dining, parks, and I-83. This is a real neighborhood with real roots. Now here's the part that changes everything. This property qualifies for the Vacant to Value Program AND the First-Time Homebuyer Incentive Program, and they stack. Qualified buyers can walk in with more than $30,000 in grant money applied toward this purchase. On a $290,000 fully gut-renovated home with a warranty included. Let that sink in. If you've been renting and telling yourself homeownership isn't in reach — this is the property that proves you wrong. Schedule your showing before someone else does.
