Dickeyville Homes for Rent

Dickeyville in Baltimore is a historic mill town established in 1772, located behind Gwynn Falls/Leakin Park in West Baltimore. The neighborhood consists of over 140 homes, originally built for mill workers in the early 19th century, now restored to feature styles like colonials, cottages, Cape Cods, and row homes. These homes are characterized by stone walls, clapboard exteriors, white picket fences, lush gardens, and wrap-around front porches. The community is contoured by the Gwynn Falls River, which once powered local mills and now serves as a scenic gathering spot for events such as the Dickeyville Bonfire and the Fourth of July Parade. The Dickeyville Community Association and The Dickeyville Garden Club sponsor various annual events, including pancake breakfasts and Halloween trick-or-treating. Outdoor attractions include the Dickeyville dam and the neighboring Gwynn Falls Trail, a 15-mile urban hiking and biking trail offering scenic views and woodlands. For history enthusiasts, a self-guided walking tour reveals historic sites like the Dickeyville Memorial Presbyterian Church and the Former Mill Warehouse. Dickeyville is centrally located with direct access to major thoroughfares like I-95 and I-70, facilitating easy commutes.
