Carroll-South Hilton
Neighborhood in Baltimore, Maryland
Baltimore City 21223, 21229
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.From Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park to upcoming renovations
Between parks and the upcoming recreation center nearby, residents of Carroll-South Hilton find plenty of things to do. 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. In the coming years, an additional opportunity will take shape in the place of a now-vacant recreation center in the community. Courtesy of a significant donation from the Baltimore Ravens, a new Boys & Girls Club will feature youth programs that offer opportunities to practice on new athletic fields and learn life skills. In the meantime, the Mary E. Rodman Recreation Center, located about a mile away, is the nearest option for indoor activities for all ages.
