For the investor seeking a high-potential asset or the first-time buyer ready to trade rent receipts for a deed, this property offers a clear path to building immediate equity. Being an end-unit, the home benefits from additional light and a sense of openness that traditional interior units lack. The interior layout features three bedrooms on the upper level, anchored by a full central bathroom. The floor plan provides a solid foundation for modern updates, allowing a buyer to customize the space while increasing the home's market value. The lower level adds significant utility to the home. Unlike many standard city rowhomes, the basement is equipped with a second full bathroom. This setup creates a perfect footprint for a guest suite, a private home office, or a secondary living area, giving the home a level of flexibility that is highly sought after in the 21213 zip code. Outdoor convenience is the standout feature here. The rear of the property includes a fenced backyard that leads to a private concrete driveway.

1517 N Potomac Street is more than just a residence; it is a strategic opportunity. With its functional 3-bedroom/2-bath configuration and the rare addition of off-street parking, this home is ready for a vision that turns its solid bones into a modern Baltimore standout.
