Today, we’re going to focus on that hip little neighborhood south of the Inner Harbor, Federal Hill. If you don’t make the trip down too often, well, you’re missing out. There’s the amazing happy hour oyster special at Nick’s Seafood, the Cross Street Market, and even Illusions, Baltimore’s only magic bar, to keep us happy when we’re on the other side of the Harbor. It seems like a good place to live… made all the more tempting by these three properties that recently came on the market. Take a look!
Federal Hill
1646 Belt Street
This two-bedroom, one bath rowhouse is really quite charming. Now, we’ve always been a bit of a sucker for bay windows – they just provide that little extra oomph of light and space that so many rooms need – and when that gets paired up with all of the exposed brick… well, we’ve got a tough time not liking these surroundings. Add a lovely backyard patio, and the fact that it’s also within walking distance to Riverside Park and, suddenly, living in the city doesn’t mean giving up the outdoors. Priced at $185,900.
621 Harvey Street
Okay, we might be a touch superficial, but once a rowhouse puts on a roof deck, we don’t really care about what’s on the inside. If that makes us shallow, we’re shallow. But despite this two-bedroom, two-bath rowhouse’s roof deck, with its awe-inspiring views of the Baltimore skyline and harbor, there’s still plenty to like on the inside. The original hardwood floors, for instance. The master suite and walk-in closet. The finished basement with separate laundry room. You know, stuff that might make you forget about the roof deck. Although not for long, we’re sure. Priced at $224,900.
1640 Patapsco Street
This end-of-the-group two-bedroom, 1.5-bath rowhouse (our favorite position: extra windows = extra light!) is great for a lot of reasons. Exposed brick, refinished hardwood floors, central A/C, a remodeled kitchen… oh man, we could go on. Our favorite feature, though, is the elevated back deck accessible through a bedroom. We can’t imagine a much better way to start our day than by walking out our back porch and enjoying breakfast with a view. Priced at $290,000.
