Property Description
Welcome to 5604 1/2 Purlington Way, an exquisite all brick Homeland colonial featuring 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths with a full in-law suite. Tucked away in a cul-de-sac just outside the boundaries of the Homeland Historic District, this remarkable home features a gracious layout, timeless design, two modern kitchens and many comforts for practical day-to-day living. You will notice expansive rooms, hardwood floors and large bump-out windows bathing the living spaces in natural light. Greet your guests in the stately entry hallway leading to an elegant living room with a wood burning fireplace. The living room wraps around to a formal dining room, a spacious kitchen and attached breakfast room. The first floor is completed by a connecting in-law suite (living room, kitchen, bedroom and new bathroom) that offers egress to a rear patio and landscaped, fenced in backyard providing wonderful living and entertaining spaces. Upstairs you'll find a huge primary bedroom suite and three additional bedrooms with a shared hallway bath. The lower level adds another 550 square feet of newly finished living space for recreation, home office or working out as well as a new half bath. The new owners will greatly benefit from the current owners' investments to this home, first and foremost, a roof solar electric system (6 MWh yearly production) with SREC payments made to the new owner. This system was purchased, not leased, and conveys with a transferable warranty. Other investments include an insulated and weatherized attic, updated electric panel, new gutters and gutter guard, a marine grade sump pump, back flow valve, and much more. This home will appeal to a broad scope of buyers including those seeking multigenerational living or separate guest quarters. The home has an attached two car garage and a lengthy driveway with parking for multiple guests. Conveniently located in the Charles Street corridor and surrounded by some of Baltimore's finest walkable neighborhoods and shops.
