...Butcher’s Hill Living: Spacious, modern and steps from it all!

Three car parking, renovated to CHAP standards in 2017, this home offers the perfect mix of historic charm and modern convenience, while still carrying valuable CHAP tax credits to ease your monthly payment. Whether you are already calling Baltimore home and ready to upgrade your lifestyle with more space, walk-in closets, private parking, and outdoor decks—or relocating to the city with Johns Hopkins just steps away—you’ll find a worry-free, stylish home in one of Baltimore’s most welcoming neighborhoods.

A home Designed for Living

Generous Lot: A rare oversized lot allows both off-street parking (three cars) and the creation of a private first-level garden or entertaining oasis.

Outdoor Lifestyle: Two decks provide incredible vantage points for city fireworks, evening dining, or entertaining friends. The third-floor deck is hall-accessible—no need to cut through a bedroom.

Third-Floor Suite: Your private retreat with a full bath, walk-in closet, and wet bar, complete with space for a beverage fridge. This level functions as a self-contained oasis for relaxing or hosting.

Walk-In Closets & Storage: Thoughtfully designed closets throughout (a true luxury in Baltimore rowhomes) plus a waterproofed basement with French drain—ideal for bikes, storage, or hobby space.

Upgrades for Peace of Mind: A brand-new sewer line and waterproofed lower level ensure low-maintenance living.

The lifestyle around you:

Johns Hopkins Medical Campus is just blocks away, making for an easy commute.

Fells Point waterfront is minutes away, home to boutiques, dining, and the Saturday morning Farmers Market.

Patterson Park is your backyard playground—dog walking, running trails, sports fields, festivals and concerts all year long.

Butcher’s Hill itself is known for its tight-knit, established community with tree-lined streets and a strong neighborhood association.

This isn’t just a house—it’s a lifestyle. Imagine mornings at the Fells Point Farmers Market, evening strolls through Patterson Park, and hosting friends on your private deck with fireworks in the distance. All in a home that’s been thoughtfully updated for comfort, storage, and ease.

Turnkey, tax-advantaged, and lifestyle-rich—this Butcher’s Hill home is the perfect landing spot for your Baltimore story.
