About Mount

Washington

Mount Washington, located between Jones Falls and Pimlico, is a hillside and village-like Baltimore neighborhood with a walkable commercial strip and wooded edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mount Washington Village corridor on Falls Road near Kelly Avenue, where cafes, salons, and small storefronts line the sidewalk under mature trees. The Ivy Bookshop, The Corner Pantry, and Mount Washington Tavern act as local pillars for browsing, coffee breaks, and late-night plates. Stone and brick homes, porch-front rowhouses, and tucked-away lanes give the streets a layered, lived-in look. The Jones Falls Trail and nearby parkland shape a daily rhythm of runs, dog walks, and bike commutes. Light rail service at Mount Washington Station links the hilltop calm to downtown momentum.

This picture-perfect cottage nestled in the heart of Mount Washington offers a blend of comfort and convenience. It features a spacious, flat backyard, off-street parking for two vehicles, and the potential for installing an EV charger, making it an ideal choice for modern living. The home underwent a complete gut renovation and rebuild seven years ago. Every inch of space has been thoughtfully and creatively arranged to maximize utility and comfort. The intelligent layout ensures that each area serves a functional purpose, contributing to the overall appeal of the property. Thanks to the generous lot size and the orientation of the house, there is significant potential for future expansion. While the property is perfect as a one-bedroom home, it also includes an additional study or office on the second floor which can accommodate a small bed or futon for overnight guests, should you want to use it a backup bedroom, making it perfect for anyone seeking the simplicity of “small house” living. Climate control is provided by two mini-split units—one centrally located on the first floor and another at the top of the stairs on the second floor. This system has proven effective for the past two homeowners, ensuring comfort throughout the year. For the price of a condo, this cottage offers a large yard and the freedom of no condo fees. It is truly a unique opportunity.
