1627 Aliceanna St Townhouse

48 hour showing notice required. Your country cottage in the city, combining quaint charm with the best of urban living. Perhaps the oldest, and largest, surviving wooden house in Baltimore, this home was built in 1787 and completely restored in 2011 with additional improvements in 2014. The cozy living room features a 19th century decorative mirrored fireplace. The open kitchen and dining room floor plan adds a modern feel to this period home. The updated kitchen has marble counters and custom cabinetry. The first floor powder room is right off the kitchen. Step through the back door onto a landscaped brick patio with plenty of room to entertain. The second floor primary bedroom overlooks the yard and includes a built-in dresser with marble top. A second floor full bath has a skylight and built-in storage under a marble counter and laundry closet. A generous walk in closet is located in the center of the home. The second bedroom is in the front of the home with two large windows overlooking Aliceanna Street, with an attached closet. This home is ideally located just steps from the Fell's Point waterfront with its many dining and entertainment options, and is within easy walking distance to Harbor East and the flagship Whole Foods market. The North Market food hall and South Market Choptank crab house are just around the corner, while the elegant new Pendry Hotel is three blocks away. Once the home of Nicolas Leeke, a schoolmaster, and later of the famous privateer of the war of 1812, Captain Thomas Boyle, this house was awarded The Preserve America Steward Award, signed by Michelle Obama, in 2012.
