Rowhouses are troublesome for dog-lovers. While the homes are lovely, the yards sometimes aren’t big enough for a dog. Or at least the sort of big, fun, slobbery dog that all decent people love and cherish. Locust Point, in addition to being home to Fort McHenry, Phillips Seafood, and Latrobe Park, is the future site [...]

Have you become bored of the same old houses for sale, week after week? Are you tired of browsing the same boring listings that never seem to change? Do you ever wonder, “Where are all of the houses that are new to the market? Where can I find those?” This, gentle reader, is why we [...]

We’re not quite sure what it is about Locust Point that we like, but we know we like it. Perhaps it’s because our first crab feast was at L.P. Steamers, as authentic a crab shack as you’re going to find. Perhaps it’s because we always seem find ourselves around there when our parents are in [...]

We know that to some of you folks – the entrepreneurial and freelancing sorts – living close to work is a moot point: your home is where you work. In your honor we’re focusing this week on two-bedroom residences, with patios, that can easily be transformed into home offices. Convert the second bedroom into [...]

Everyone knows it’s a buyer’s market, but when a seller knocks $50,000 off a moderately priced house, bargain hunters sit up and take notice. We found three homes whose prices dropped $50,000 within the past two or three months. Two are under 900 square feet and gorgeous. The third is bigger and, while more basic, [...]

This week we scoured the listings for three-bedrooms in the $250,000 neighborhood. We found a little something for everyone, whether your taste runs to cute, hip, or sophisticated. And they’ve all had their prices reduced in the past 30 days!

If it was a quiet night in our college years, if we didn’t have much homework, if finals were over, or if it was any day of the week after Wednesday, we could usually be found in our buddy Jeff’s garage, surrounding a ping-pong table. Now, while table tennis is a great, great game, that’s [...]
