Charming Cheswolde Neighborhood in Baltimore, MD 21209
Cheswolde is a charming neighborhood in Baltimore, MD.
Actually, Baltimore has long been known as a city of neighborhoods. LiveBaltimore.com, a nonprofit organization that promotes living in Baltimore City, has information on many of the 225 neighborhoods that make up this wonderfully diverse city.
Before Baltimore City annexed part of Baltimore County in 1918, Cheswolde was a small area that was home to the hunting lodge of Charles Carroll of Carrolton, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
For many decades, Cheswolde remained a sleepy suburb, and it was not until the building boom times of the 1940s and 1950s that many of the homes here today were built. Where the Curtis-Wright Airfield once operated a flight school into the 1950s, now there are single family homes (old and new), townhouses, garden apartments and condos. Today, Cheswolde is a charming mixture and one of my favorite Baltimore neighborhoods. But maybe that's also because it's my neighborhood, too!
You know that I love to list and sell homes in Cheswolde. For years I have walked the quiet streets and watched as houses come and go and also figured out They Are Not Making Anymore Land in Baltimore 21209
Cheswolde offers many properties that combine a country-like setting with near-to-everything convenience, like the modern residences at Heather Ridge on Red Cedar Place. Not far away on Fallstaff Road, The Towers Condominium also offers carefree living that is walking distance to shopping.

If a single family home with one-floor living is your preference, we have that, too, in homes like this custom contemporary brick rancher. This home is in a settled neighborhood with the mature trees and carefully tended gardens that show how much people enjoy the living here.
In fact, for some people it's a life-long experience. A couple of years ago I sold a home for a charming 85-year-old lady who had lived in Cheswolde literally since the day she was born, in that house that her father built, and in the same room that later became her bedroom.
I've enjoyed the charms of Cheswolde for many years, and I know that it is one of Baltimore's finest neighborhoods.
