About This Property

Stunning, revitalized Bolton Hill home on a sought-after private block on John Street. Built in 1850, this home echoes the historic integrity and uniqueness you love, but the homeowner has meticulously updated it, blending the soul of Charm City with modern living so you can move right in. The first floor welcomes you with an iconic vestibule and a massive living room featuring a large front window and a marble wood-burning fireplace surrounded by built-ins. From the living room, you will find a grand dining room with custom cabinets, two XO wine and beverage refrigerators, and an antique library ladder (2021). Just off the dining room, you will enjoy the convenience of your renovated first-floor powder room (2023). The kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, including a KitchenAid refrigerator, dishwasher, and oven (2022), plus a chef-approved Thermador induction cooktop (2024)! Follow the beautiful banister to your second floor, where you will find three bedrooms, all with decorative fireplaces. The front bedroom is massive and could easily double as an additional family room; the center room easily fits a king-sized bed; and the rear room offers tons of built-ins, perfect for an office, guest space, or nursery. The second-floor bathroom was completely renovated in 2026; you will love the heated floors! The top floor is your primary suite and getaway. This floor features a custom walk-through closet to swoon over, a functional laundry room with a Bosch washer and dryer (2024), and a full bathroom with a shower and a soaking tub, plus access to the roof with the potential to add a walkout deck. Finally, this home has a basement with a walkout for storage or workshop needs, and a private city oasis in the rear for coffee or cocktails. This home boasts original hardwoods throughout, is wired for Cat5 Ethernet, 2-zone central air, a Navien boiler installed in 2021, a new roof in 2019, and many updated windows. All of this is just steps to fabulous neighborhood restaurants, parks, MICA, the Peabody Institute, and more, with easy access to the light rail, I-83, and the Johns Hopkins Shuttle. *Home is located in a CHAP district and is subject to the Midtown Special Benefits District surcharge. **See full list of updates in disclosures
