Between two north Baltimore highways
Perring Loch, named for its location between Perring Parkway and Loch Raven Boulevard, is an entirely residential neighborhood in north Baltimore. The web of midcentury townhouses that make up the tightly clustered streets dwell in the shadow of MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital, an institution that has been named by U.S. News & World Report as Top 50 for orthopedics, diabetic care and geriatric medicine. The neighborhood is also perched just north of Morgan State University, the largest of Maryland’s historically Black colleges. “It’s a quiet neighborhood, well-positioned for access to the city and the county,” says Charles Billig, principal broker with A.J. Billig & Co. auctioneers. “Living there you’re not far from the city, but you’re also close to Towson. You have Towson University to one side and Morgan State to the other. Owners tend to settle there, which helps to make it a community. It’s not always easy to find that in the city.” This neighborly atmosphere helps to bolster the area’s CAP Index crime score, which sits at a 3 out of 10. Perring Loch is a north Baltimore neighborhood where residents can experience all the city has to offer and come home to a comfortable suburban roost.
The Perring Loch neighborhood is characterized by its two-story, brick rowhomes.

A community of midcentury townhouses
Densely clustered townhouses are spread across the net-like streets of Perring Loch in orderly rows, all made of red brick and standing on narrow lots that enjoy small front and backyards. They are set back from the sidewalks by walkways, which lead to short stairways and stoops flanked by manicured bushes. Some backyards are entirely comprised of concrete driveways, while others have space enough for sheds and small gardens. Street parking is the norm, with some spots shaded by tall leafy trees during the muggy summer months. “It’s all mid- to late-1950s townhouses,” Billig says. “It’s been a pretty stable, owner-occupied place since the 1970s at least.” These homes tend to cost anywhere from $145,000 to $300,000 depending on the number of available bedrooms and the condition of the property.
Residents in Perring Loch can enjoy modest yard space with their rowhome.

Harford Road is a bastion of business activity, where locals can grab a cup of Baltimore’s favorite coffee at Zeke’s before heading to One Sweet Moment for a classic egg custard-flavored snowball topped with marshmallow cream.

Sports downtown and movies at The Senator
Heading down Harford Road is the quickest way to get to downtown, where orange-clad locals and out-of-towners gather at Camden Yards for Orioles games. During football season, crowds throng to M&T Bank Stadium to cheer on the Ravens. Those residents who prefer to avoid sporting events can head to the Baltimore Museum of Art, which features exhibits of work ranging from classical Japanese prints to modern performance installations. “The Senator Theatre is right there, too,” says Billig. This classic movie house opened in 1939 and draws visitors regularly looking to appreciate its Art Deco style and to catch the latest blockbuster films.

Summer afternoons at Swan Lake Swim Club
At Woodbourne Avenue Park, in the center of the community, children can romp on the jungle gym and swing on the swing set. The Swan Lake Swim Club is a private member-managed pool where kids can spend summer afternoons splashing in the water and enjoying ice cream at the picnic tables. Golfers can book a tee time at the Mount Pleasant Golf Course and follow in the footsteps of Arnold Palmer, who won his second professional victory here in 1956. “Mount Pleasant golf course is still doing well, and it’s pretty fun to play on,” Billig says. “It’s got a lot of history to it as well.” On the other side of Morgan State’s campus, folks can walk or bike around Lake Montebello, a reservoir built in 1881. The green space around the lake is also home to a disc golf course and to the Herring Run Park, which hosts youth sports on its multiple athletic fields.
