Ridgely’s Delight's central location puts Baltimore hotspots nearby
In Ridgely's Delight, 19th-century rowhouses line narrow, cobblestone streets. It’s the birthplace of baseball legend Babe Ruth, whose life is celebrated at the Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum on Emory Street. Baseball still plays a large role in the neighborhood. Ridgely's Delight sits in the shadow of Oriole Park at Camden Yards, which brings fans and sports bars to its blocks. More of Baltimore's best-known attractions are just steps away, from M&T Bank Stadium to the Inner Harbor. But here in Ridgely's Delight, an active neighborhood association brings residents together throughout the year, and Conway Street Park offers a place to walk your dog at the end of a long day.
Brick rowhouses offer historic character and updated interiors
You’ll find classic brick rowhouses in this compact Baltimore neighborhood. Despite their narrow frontages, most have three or more floors and outdoor space like private rooftop decks or rear patios. They typically have modern kitchens, updated bathrooms and new mechanical systems, alongside historic details such as wide-plank heart-of-pine floors and original staircases. “It’s a nice historic neighborhood,” says William Poist, a real estate agent with New Home Team of Maryland, who has sold homes throughout Baltimore. “Lots of trees line the streets.” Depending mostly on condition, prices can range from the upper $100,000s to the mid-$700,000s, with a few properties reaching into the millions.
