Located along the original Yorktown turnpike, which stretched from Yorktown, Pennsylvania to downtown Baltimore, the neighborhood of Woodbourne-McCabe evolved from a stop-over for tired Pennsylvania farmers into a small residential community of 400 homes.
While Woodbourne-McCabe “doesn’t get a lot of hype, it does offer a variety of housing stock,” explains Melvin Knight, lifelong Baltimore resident and Realtor with Coldwell Banker. “You’ll find cottages, small and big rowhouses, all from different periods," and ranging in condition from newly renovated to fixer-uppers. Woodbourne-McCabe consists primarily of semi-detached duplexes and traditional two-story row houses. Styles vary from simple red-brick facades to those featuring bowed front windows and short roofed-front porches. Single-family home options trend toward Craftsman styles, like American Foursquare and bungalow designs. The average housing cost here is $129,000, with price points varying depending on the age, size, and condition of the property. For those looking to rent, Woodbourne-McCabe also offers a variety of apartment options.
Baltimore City Public Schools serves the area and includes Lois T. Murray Elementary School, covering kindergarten through eighth grade and earning a C rating from Niche. Many students apply to A-rated Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, known as "Poly," a STEM-centric Blue-Ribbon Award-winning high school founded in 1883 that offers advanced coursework in engineering and math.
Residents can pack a picnic or enjoy a stroll at Alhambra Park and pavilion. Or they can head next door to the expansive Dewees Park for more outdoor fun. Featuring 18-acres of green spaces, this park includes athletic fields, basketball courts, a playground, and even an urban garden where residents can rent their very own plots.
For all your everyday essentials, York Road provides residents with easy access to retailers like CVS pharmacy, a Sunoco gas station and a wide variety of fast-food and take-out restaurants. For groceries, check out the Govan’s Farmers’ Market which takes place every Wednesday from 3pm to 6pm, June through September. Established in 2011, this market's mission is to provide fresh foods for the local community when nutritious resources are scarce. Featuring local vendors and accepting a wide variety of payment options, the Govan’s market has become a neighborhood staple. For healthy options throughout the year, the Fresh Crate program offers pick up of fruits and veggies year-round at local drop-off points, like the historic Rossiter Corner Grocery. Or if you’re looking to shop at larger-scale grocery stores, residents will find a Lidl supermarket in Northwood and a Giant Food in Cedarcroft.For a fun outing, residents can head north on York Road to enjoy the popular Belvedere Square Market. Less than 5-minutes away, Belvedere Square offers a variety of shopping and dining options plus an open-air patio. Right next door you'll also find the historic Senator Theater. Built in 1939, The Senator offers a variety of new releases and classics, popcorn and candies, all in a cool Art Deco setting.
Woodbourne-McCabe also benefits from a strong community association and is an active member of the York Road Partnership. Established in 1995, this organization collaborates with residents, businesses, non-profits, and local institutions to implement community-based projects like a tree inventory and urban garden, streetscape beautification efforts—through painting murals, and even a larger-scale York Road commercial revitalization plan.
