Parks for people
Just a cannon shot from the Inner Harbor, Otterbein is a shining example of why Baltimore is often called Charm City. This hamlet of tightly packed Colonial and Second Empire homes is crosshatched with leafy streets hiding two cozy green spaces, adding a neighborly spirit to this small area a block from the water. "We have a huge sense of community that you don't find elsewhere, and it's all because of the park access," says Realtor James Baldwin of the Baldwin & Griffin Group, who has lived in Otterbein for over 20 years. "To me, Otterbein offers a lot of like-minded residents, yet it's still very diverse in backgrounds and ages."

Historic row homes for competitive prices
Otterbein showcases some of the finest examples of a beloved Baltimore style: the red brick Colonial row house. Many are tightly clustered alongside each other beneath the tree-lined streets and brick sidewalks and are often built around communal greenspaces and parks, which further add to the Colonial village-like charm. Ranging only somewhat in both style and size, a buyer can find two-story row homes featuring Flemish bond brickwork, limestone archways and chimneys. Three-story Victorian houses from ERA complete with elaborate cornices are also available. But if one looks up, the early American atmosphere of Otterbein gets a splash of modernity upon noticing a variety of one- and two-bedroom apartment high-rises and condos as well. Despite these many sought-after charms, Otterbein remains relatively affordable for a downtown historic neighborhood, with many row homes selling for around $250,000 and up. Newer builds with modern interiors tend to go for more, often selling closer to mid-$400,000.
Early 19th-century architecture can be found scattered throughout many parts of Otterbein.
Many row homes within the Otterbein neighborhood have been renovated since the 19th century.

Overview of the Otterbein neighborhood located in Baltimore, MD.
Swim clubs and scenic hilltops
The pocket parks within Otterbein act more as communal green spaces and pedestrian cut-throughs rather than areas for recreation. Wheel Park and Concert Park are small spaces entwined between the neighborhood's homes where many locals go to relax on a bench or to walk their dogs. For recreation, Rash Field offers a skatepark and volleyball courts, all situated along the south end of the scenic Harbor Promenade. Other locals head south to the Otterbein Swim Club to cool off in the summer. And of course, Federal Hill Park for a picture-perfect view of the Baltimore skyline and glorious harbor.
The Maryland Science Center near Otterbein is sure to be fun for the entire family.
Kicking and singing
Many of Otterbein's prominent or historic sites frequently host events. Concert Park is a frequent space for community barbecues and concerts. Built in 1785, the Old Otterbein United Methodist Church is not only the oldest church in Baltimore but also the oldest standing building in the city. Local singers flock there on Sunday mornings to participate in weekly worship hymnals while history buffs attend tours. In the summer, Otterbein Swim Club becomes a frequent site for events, such as First Friday Late Swims and movie nights.
Morning walks for coffee
According to Baldwin, "There's not many commercial businesses in Otterbein, but you can very easily walk to places nearby, so it feels more residential." Mornings in Otterbein often begin with a stroll over to Morning Mugs Coffee on Hughes Street for a blueberry muffin and caffeine kick. Five blocks north is Ramen Utsuke, a popular spot for all things Japanese cuisine, some as vegetarian options, including bento boxes, edamame and ramen bowls.
