About this House

INVESTOR ALERT! This is not your typical renovation opportunity. This spacious end-of-group home was gut renovated to the studs in 2009 by Dominion Home Group, with substantial updating already in place and plenty of opportunity for the next owner to add value. Offering more than 700 sq ft per level, the home features high ceilings, hardwood floors, recessed lighting and large replacement windows that provide excellent natural light throughout. The generous open kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances all replaced within approximately the past 5 years. Including a 5-burner gas range, refrigerator, microwave and wine refrigerator. Convenient half bath and large walk-in pantry off the kitchen area. A high-quality security door leads to the rear deck and private fenced yard. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The spacious primary suite features high ceilings, bow windows and a modern ceiling fan. Both full bathrooms were completely renovated in January 2026 with walk-in showers, solid-surface wall panels and custom glass enclosure in the primary bath for a clean, low-maintenance finish. A skylight over the stairwell and another in one of the bedrooms add even more natural light. The finished lower level provides additional flexible living space along with a washer and dryer replaced within approximately the past 5 years. Additional features include a modernized front porch with horizontal wood detailing and a textured epoxy finish, fenced side and rear yards, replacement windows throughout, HVAC replaced approximately 10 years ago and excellent potential both inside and out. A substantial amount of renovation and updating has already been completed, while remaining improvements give the next owner the opportunity to further enhance the property and build equity. Ideal for a buy-and-hold investor, renovation project or buyer looking for a property with strong value-add potential. Convenient Northeast Baltimore location near Morgan State University, Northwood Commons, Lake Montebello, Herring Run Park, and major commuter routes. Sold strictly AS IS. Inspections for informational purposes only. Cash offers strongly preferred.

    "We are fairly close to popular Baltimore things. Just a stones throw from all nearby schools Towson, Johns Hopkins, MICA, Loyola, etc. We sit right next to Hampden and Belvedere Square. But we are also in an underdeveloped yet expensive part of Baltimore. It’s too expensive to reasonably live here but also ungentrified so we aren’t the cleanest prettiest place, but for important reasons of systematic racism, meaning some people call it “the hood.” With that said, my neighbors are nice and everyone I’ve interacted with on Greenmount have been very nice to me.
