Property Description
Welcome to 16 W. Franklin Street, a delightful blend of historic charm and modern convenience nestled in the vibrant heart of Mount Vernon! This Second Empire Townhouse, dating back to 1873, has been lovingly restored to offer a living experience that’s as unique as it is inviting. If these walls could talk and tell you the history and conversations that have taken place here over the past 150+ years. Original details abound here including ornate mantels, intricate plaster ceiling designs, and unique zebra-striped wood floors that are sure to turn heads! Step through the front door and into a cozy parlor featuring an original mantel that practically whispers relaxation. The main level also includes a spacious dining room with a bay window perfect for gazing out at the world, and a handy full guest bath. Climb the grand staircase, illuminated by a stunning skylight. Here, you’ll find a living room with soaring 10+ foot ceilings, an intricate marble mantel, and original mirrors that might just make you do a double-take. The large eat-in kitchen is perfect for both cooking up a storm and hosting culinary debates, with another powder room conveniently nearby. The third floor is home to two bedrooms and a full bath, while the top floor is dedicated to the primary suite. This luxurious space features a spa-like bathroom with double vanities and a steam shower, a dressing room, and a laundry room complete with a dryer and washer – because who wants to lug laundry up and down stairs? The unfinished basement offers plenty of room for storage, a workshop, or perhaps your own secret hideaway. And parking? No problem! There’s a private carport accessed off Hamilton Street that can fit up to four cars in tandem. With new electric, plumbing, 2 Zone Heat, and Central AC, this home is as hassle-free as it is stunning. Whether you choose to enjoy it as a single-family home or use the main level for a home office, the possibilities are endless. Join us for an open house on Sunday, November 17th, from 1-2:30pm, and discover why this rare gem in downtown Baltimore is the talk of the town. Walk to everything from restaurants and cafes to markets and public transportation. Buyer to verify any permitted uses other than single-family with Baltimore City. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of history with all the modern amenities!
