Property Description
Welcome to 1309 Light Street, a historic Federal Hill rowhome offering an incredible blend of original character, generous living space, and modern functionality. This special home is filled with timeless details and architectural charm from the moment you arrive. The well-preserved front facade features a large arched window that makes a memorable first impression. Step inside to the welcoming vestibule, where a custom stained glass transom leads into the formal living room. Here, you'll find a wood-burning fireplace, extra-tall tin ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and wood pocket shutters framing the front window. Just beyond the living room is an oversized dining area with plenty of room for large dinner parties, holiday gatherings, and everyday entertaining. Continue into the functional kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, oak cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and built-in storage. The true bonus of the main level is the extra-large rear family room, providing the perfect space for movie nights, Ravens watch parties, or simply relaxing with family and friends. There's also plenty of room for a large sectional along with a home office, play area, or additional seating. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms, convenient laundry, and excellent closet space. An easily accessible rooftop deck provides spectacular views of Downtown Baltimore and the stadiums, creating an ideal spot to unwind, entertain, or enjoy the city skyline. The lower level houses the mechanical systems while offering an exceptional amount of storage space. Ideally located just steps from Federal Hill's popular restaurants, bars, shops, and neighborhood hotspots, with easy access to I 95 and Downtown Baltimore. 1309 Light Street offers the space, character, and location you've been looking for in one of Baltimore's most vibrant neighborhoods!
