Tucked away on a serene street, this charming home offers a peaceful retreat in Mount Washington. You really can have it all. This wonderful home checks all the boxes and is waiting for your personal touches! Abundant natural light streams through bathing the entire home in gorgeous light. Original details are still found throughout the home including the recently refinished beautiful wood inlay floors. While you enjoy original details, the house has been continuously cared for. The home boasts a wonderful sunroom addition 2007, central air and boiler replaced 2009, ½ bath on first floor, the watermain was replaced in 1995, water heater was replaced in 2024, replacement windows, siding and the front porch was reconstructed in 2002, French drain in basement 2004, basement was finished in 2010, garage reconstructed 2012, garage and home stonework added 2014, upstairs bathroom renovated and washer and dryer replaced in 2017, roof replaced 2018, chimney repointed and relined 2019, replaced back fence 2020, added a water filter system to kitchen sink 2021, and have just now repainted the interior and refinished the floors 2025. Main level has large living room + dining room as well as a kitchen off of the dining room. French doors from the dining room lead to the sunroom. And then sliding doors lead you outside to a peaceful retreat with a pond and yard. The front porch is perfect for sipping coffee and meeting your neighbors, or just relaxing after a long day. The living room is large and yet at the same time, cozy, warm and inviting, and filled with natural light. Perfect for parties, watching sporting events, as well as game nights or hanging out on the couch watching your favorite movies. Upper level includes 3 bedrooms (the bedroom sizes are great) and a full bathroom. The basement is ready to be a man cave, playroom, craft area, workout space, whatever you need. AND there is a garage and plenty of parking too! Meticulously cared for this home embodies a perfect blend of thoughtful design, serene surroundings, and contemporary convenience, promising a haven where every detail contributes to a life well-lived. Come see it, it is ready for its new owner(s)! The house is in Mount Washington which touts restaurants like the Abbey Burger, Crepe du Jour, Ethel's Kitchen and the Mt. Washington Tavern, as well as salons/spas, massage places, etc. It only takes a few minutes to drive or bike to the Mount Washington Whole Foods, Cylburn Arboretum, and Lake Roland Park. There are two great neighborhood playgrounds, Northwest Park as well as Luckman Park. Northwest Park also hosts a neighborhood Sunday Farmers Market - a short walk away and the Mount Washington Pool is easy to walk or ride your bike to! It is about 10 minutes from Johns Hopkins University, and it takes about 15 minutes to get downtown. It's convenient for commuters to the Johns Hopkins Medical Institute, and is close to a free shuttle that takes you directly to the Johns Hopkins Hospital area. A new trail and walkable streets connect you to all of the above.
