Even if today makes us want to crawl back under the covers and have someone bring us tea and oatmeal, we still believe that spring has sprung and this whole cold/rainy thing is just a fluke. So this week we bring you homes that have an outside that is (or could be) just as pretty as their insides, houses with enticing gardens/yards/patios to help you better appreciate the outdoors.
Hollins Market/Union Square
You can think of this appealing three-story rowhouse in the emerging Hollins Market neighborhood as being on sale — its list price is down ten percent (from $329,000 to $299,500) since it first went on the market. There are three bedrooms (including a third-floor master suite) and two big bathrooms with clawfoot bathtubs. In the summer, you can entertain on the well-maintained backyard patio; when it gets colder, there are a couple of working fireplaces inside, just waiting for you to cozy up to. At 2,600 square feet, there’s plenty of room here for a family.
Patterson Park
2618 E. Baltimore Street, 21224
This three-story Victorian faces Patterson Park, so there’s already plenty of green space right outside your front door. The greedy (or private) among us, though, might be pleased to see its cute backyard garden, complete with a little pond. Sure, this place needs work — but it’s a wonderful starting place, with southern exposure, park views, 3,238 square feet of space, six bedrooms (!) and 3.5 baths. Recent improvements include a new furnace, central air and plumbing updates. Listed at $375,000.
Lauraville
Lauraville is emerging as a haven for people who want the energy of city life, and the trees and space of county living. Located within walking distance of Lauraville’s “Main Street” (aka Harford Road), this charming two-bedroom, 1.5 bath home features the best of both. Built in 1915, it retains much of its original charm — lots of hardwood floors, a big brick fireplace, and large leafy trees all around. The private yard is large and tree-shaded; there’s a deck, a storage shed/garage, and still plenty of room to play a mini-game of soccer. Listed at $219,900.
