Community with classic Baltimore architecture and hidden charm
Located near the southern tip of Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park, Carroll-South Hilton maintains the classic architecture of Baltimore’s residential communities, with brick row houses lining each street. While some abandoned properties are left waiting for rehabilitation, many homes have already undergone renovation. “Carroll-South Hilton can be a rough neighborhood in some ways—I know because I grew up nearby. But it also has some outstanding assets that only people who live here would know about,” says Russ Dukan of Allfirst Realty, a Realtor with 15 years of experience and a prior resident of Baltimore City. One of the newest assets heading to the neighborhood is a Boys & Girls Club in a renovated recreation center.

Below-average prices and a neighborly atmosphere
A neighborhood with home prices below the average for Baltimore City, Carroll-South Hilton features single-family homes and townhouses primarily built around 1940. Sidewalks line each car-lined street, and homes feature concrete entryways with shingled or metal awnings. Homebuyers are often local investors or long-time residents, and, as Dukan explains, “Several homeowners who live here own neighboring properties. That tends to make for a stronger sense of community. Some families have lived here for three generations.” Buyers can find updated four-bedroom homes for around $135,000 and brick houses with over 1,200 square feet for about $180,000.
Carroll-South Hilton is serviced by the Baltimore City Bus System.

Mount Olivet and Phelps Lane Park is the nearest green space and includes walking trails with scenic views of wildlife, including white-tailed deer. Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park also provides plenty of outdoor adventure with over 1,000 acres of woodlands less than a mile away.
