Open House: Saturday October 3rd 1:30-3pm. A true Charles Village Painted Lady, 2736 N Calvert Street is a grand three story historic Baltimore home filled with the original architectural details that make this neighborhood so distinctive. Set in the heart of Charles Village, originally developed as Peabody Heights, the house has been thoughtfully refreshed while preserving the craftsmanship and character that give it its soul. Set well back from Calvert Street behind a fenced front garden, the generous covered porch with swing feels like an outdoor room of its own, with broad sight-lines up and down the block and plenty of space for planters and gardening. Inside, an original wood paneled vestibule opens to a gracious foyer and lovely front parlor. The main level also includes a dining room, updated kitchen with original glass front cupboard, and breakfast room. Throughout the house are original stained glass windows and transoms, multiple pocket doors, unpainted woodwork, built in benches, decorative mantels and mirrors with glazed tile surrounds, wood floors, Lincrusta along the staircase, ornamental plaster scrollwork, Eastlake style spindle work and fretwork, and a rear servant staircase. The second floor offers two bedrooms plus a flexible office, dressing room, or nursery. The front bedroom features a beautiful bay window with built in window seat and a mantel with striking hunter green tile and original brass fireplace insert. The bath blends vintage character with modern function, retaining original subway tile, stained glass, a clawfoot tub, built in cabinetry, and a linen closet. The rear bedroom has two original built in closets with mirrored doors and opens to a private porch overlooking the lush backyard. The third floor provides three additional bedrooms and a renovated full bath. The front bedroom is filled with eastern light from a bank of windows and retains its original mirrored wardrobe. The lower level includes a large laundry room, full bath, and expansive unfinished space for storage, a workshop, bicycles, hobbies, and projects, with convenient rear stair access. Outside, the rear yard can serve as a garden and patio or as off street parking when needed. Important improvements include a new roof, completely rewired electrical system, many replacement windows, an updated kitchen, and fresh interior and exterior paint. The location is equally compelling. Johns Hopkins University, Wyman Park, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the 32nd Street Farmers Market, and the shops and restaurants of Charles Village, Waverly, and Remington are all nearby. Favorites include R. House, Greedy Reads, B.Willow, La Maison by Cafe Dear Leon, Pink Flamingo, Doppio Pasticceria, Peabody Heights Brewery, Streets Market, Motzi Bread, Toki Underground, Red Emma's, and Normal's Books. The home is located within the Charles Village Community Benefits District and near beloved neighborhood traditions including the Charles Village Garden Walk, Spaghetti Disco, and Charles Village Music Series. Guilford Avenue bike lanes, MTA service, the Charm City Circulator, and Johns Hopkins shuttle connections make getting around Baltimore easy, while nearby Penn Station provides MARC service to Washington, DC and Amtrak connections to Philadelphia, New York City, and the Northeast Corridor. For anyone searching for a historic home in Baltimore, a Charles Village townhouse, a Baltimore Painted Lady, or a character filled home near Johns Hopkins University, 2736 N Calvert Street is the real thing. Charles Village Community Benefits District Surcharge Tax $390.47 annually. This pays for additional neighborhood beautification and sanitation.
