1920's Sears Craftsman Home for Sale in Baltimore's Mt. Washington Neighborhood

Welcome to 1822 Fairbank Rd Baltimore Maryland 21209. This property is located in the heart of Mt. Washington's "Pill Hill" although it predates the majority of the homes in the neighborhood. Built in 1921, the residence is a Sears kit (or Sears Catalog) house which is a type of home that has enthusiasts across the country.

This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home is priced at $335,000. A wonderful bonus about buying this property is that it comes with an additional lot that can be used for future development. In total the land measures just under 1/2 acre.

The front porch swing is an ideal place to kick off your shoes and relax after a long day. The porch runs the full width of the house and has a desirable southern exposure. It's an elevated location that offers views of the tranquil community.

Step inside and appreciate the gleaming hardwood floors which the owner has just refinished. This is a view of the living room and dining room on the main floor. Note the glass doors that lead to the side deck.

The main floor of 1822 Fairbank Rd Baltimore 21209 has two bedrooms and one bathroom, all well sized for a variety of uses. In the back of the home you'll find a nicely updated kitchen that features a gas stove. There is a surprising amount of storage space in the kitchen, the owner was able to store 18 sets of antique china! Outside the back door you can see a pink flowering fig tree.

Want to get away from it all? Follow me upstairs to the loft-like Master bedroom. You'll love the private Jacuzzi tub. Skylights let you sleep under the stars each and every night.

The basement level of this 1920's Sears Craftsman home has been finished with durable tile. The stone fireplace and overhead recessed lighting make this space perfect for entertaining in the colder months.

Back on the main level, let's take in the wooded views off the large side deck. A canopy of trees provides shade. It's green as far as the eye can see! This eastern side of the property would be a lovely place to host a Sunday brunch. Standing on this deck at the Broker's Open an agent remarked to me "We are truly in the country!" which is ironic because this property is in a beloved part of Baltimore City.

The backyard is spacious, there is a combination of open space and wooded land. It sits mostly undeveloped awaiting its new owner. How would you use the space? I'd build an artist studio and plant a field of sunflowers.

The driveway has been freshly repaved to enhance the sale yet, you can actually live in this location without owning a car. Baltimore's Light Rail is walking distance from the property. You'll find the station in the nearby Mt. Washington Village which offers a variety of community amenities including; restaurants, spas, boutiques, and entertainment.

My Baltimore City buyers clients frequently target Mt. Washington as a neighborhood of choice because they want to be able to send their children to this school.

A final community amenity that is worth mentioning is Lake Roland at Robert E Lee Park.This park houses Baltimore's best off-leash dog park (you'll need to obtain a license). It's also a great place for a picnic or a Sunday stroll.
