Ah, Federal Hill, you sing your siren song across all of the Greatest City in America, begging us to come, indulge in active life, close to restaurants, parks, water, stadiums and nightlife. And we come, riding the public transportation that is so convenient to your neighborhood, walking over to the wonderfully strange American Visionary Arts Museum, eating the raw oysters at Nick’s Seafood, wondering why we don’t live within your borders. If only we knew of three available properties whose prices had been reduced in the last month. If only…
106 Cross Street
We’re fond of this three-story, three-bedroom, three and a half bath Federal Hill rowhouse for a lot of reasons. The floors are Brazilian cherry, the appliances are all stainless steel, and the bathtubs are all whirlpools. And it’s a good place for hosting guests as well; the third floor has a large game room, complete with wet bar, and wide-opening door that let the outside air in. Priced at $359,900, down from $375,000.
106 Warren Avenue
This is the first time (we think!) we’ve ever had a home on the listed in the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Federal Hill Historic District. Maybe we have before, but those houses didn’t have nifty plaques like this one. That said we really wouldn’t mind living in this three-bedroom, two and a half bath historic site. We especially wouldn’t mind the four working fireplaces, the antique pine floors (restored, of course), the patio and deck with skyline views. The spacious and redesigned kitchen makes us love it a little more. Priced at $495,000, down from $575,000.
So we don’t know how many of you are familiar with that Midwestern phenomenon of trailer parks, but this three-bedroom, two and a half bath rowhouse is what’d be known as a double-wide. Not because it’s particularly vulnerable to tornadoes, but because it’s two rowhouses blended into one. But no one will mistake you for being trailer trash with a gourmet kitchen (complete with commercial appliances), an oversized courtyard, a den and a library (everyone knows hillbillies don’t read). There are even four parking spaces in the back, so there will beplenty of room for when your hick cousin Eddie needs a place to park his RV. Priced at $530,000, down from $575,000.
