Unique opportunity for the discerning buyer seeking a special property in Bolton Hill. Built in 1850, this townhome was modernized in the middle of last century resulting in the best of both eras. With a nod to the "Mid-Mod" sensibilities, the open staircase incorporates a sculptural element into this Victorian gem. Live creatively - the original parlor and dining room walls have been removed to create an open entertaining and living space perfect for displaying oversized artwork and unique collections. The lofty heights of the front and side bay windows provides an abundance of natural light thought the home. The renovated eat-in kitchen provides a wonderful workspace for creative cooking while offering plenty of company for the chef. The laundry room/ pantry on the main level makes laundry a breeze. With four bedrooms, three full and one half-bath and a second level family room, this home has the flexibility that the creative spirit requires without forgoing the practical. Ample closets on each level as well as built-in bookcases and cabinetry keep stored items organized but still at your fingertips. Additional storage is available in the unfinished basement (accessed through a clever "trap door" on the main level.) The charming courtyard garden is fully fenced, and the one car carport makes city living easy. Explore the neighborhood's lush greenery including the adjacent John Street Park, one of Bolton Hill's iconic pocket parks and greenspaces. The gas fireplace on the main level is decorative and sold "as is." Close to Interstate-83, Mount Royal bike lanes, and public transportation including Light Rail and Metro as well as Penn Station for access to Amtrak, JHU shuttle, and Bolt Bus. Convenient to MICA, University of Baltimore, Bolton Swim and Tennis, Bolton Hill Nursery, The Lyric, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, The Charles and Parkway, and downtown amenities. City living at its finest! Sold "As is"
