About This Home

As of November 2025

Beautiful on Battery! Three bedrooms and a BONUS room, 1213 Battery Avenue has the charm of a classic Federal Hill rowhome — with all the benefits of a fresh, stylish renovation. Two parking spots in the rear – PARKING, PARKING, PARKING is crucial this close to the waterfront, Fed Hill, and Ravens Stadium. A perfect blend of history and modernity, this residence has undergone renovations and is ready for the next owner to enjoy. Upgrades in 2025 include a new roof, new AC, new stove, microwave and dishwasher. During the current ownership additional upgrades were completed such as a new garbage disposal (2024), refrigerator (2021), washer and dryer (2020), new toilets, new sewer line in crawl space, and new front and back doors. A full list of upgrades is available upon request and posted on the MLS for agents. A designer kitchen with high-end finishes flows seamlessly between a formal dining area and a walk-out bluestone patio (installed in 2014), perfect for entertaining inside and out. Granite countertops, chosen for the perfect color to complement the exposed brick, pair with a large window and glass rear door to bring a balance of luxury and natural light to the kitchen. Tin ceilings exist under the kitchen ceiling for the buyer who may choose to restore to its original state. A chic powder room was added to the first floor and laundry on an upper level, both critical for vertical living. Upstairs offers plenty of living space, with a central staircase flanked by bedrooms and a versatile bonus room—ideal for a home office or upper-level den. Primary en suite on the top level features large windows that offer views of the block while maintaining privacy from the street. Basement offers a clean area for storage with easy interior access. From original solid wood floors, doors and knobs to the vintage staircase this home has an instantly inviting feel – timeless details that provide warmth and character you simply can’t replicate. A stained-glass transom window above the front door, a traditional city stoop, blue door and coordinated cornice complete this iconic Federal Hill address. Upgraded lighting fixtures throughout add a modern, curated touch to every room. Fresh paint makes this home pencils down and ready for you to move right in!
