About This Home
As of June 2025In the heart of Historic Downtown Frederick, Maryland, a city celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and walkable charm, stands what can only be described as the crown jewel of Historic Frederick. PLEASE BE SURE TO WATCH THE VIDEO FOR THIS LISTING! IT IS AMAZING! 203 East 2nd Street is a rare and architecturally significant Brownstone, originally constructed in the late nineteenth century and designed in the Dempwolf style by renowned architect Joseph Dempwolf. Showcasing Romanesque and Renaissance Revival influences, the home’s intricate brick facade and carved millwork reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Offering over 4,200 square feet above grade across three full levels and a full basement, this five-bedroom, five and one half bath residence balances historic authenticity with modern luxury. The second-floor bathrooms feature radiant heated floors and heated towel racks, while all bathrooms are outfitted with floating vanities, refined tilework, and designer fixtures. Bedrooms include ceiling fans, generous windows, custom lighting, and Mitsubishi split systems for zoned climate control. The sixth bedroom has been converted into a luxury dressing room with gas log fireplace, built-in closet systems, and a marble-topped island, and can easily revert to bedroom use. Historic details include original tile, wood floors, chestnut pocket doors, and two wood-burning fireplaces. The 2023 gourmet kitchen offers GE Cafe appliances, a porcelain farmhouse sink, solid surface backsplash, concealed outlets, and a white oak pocket door crafted by Hicksville Plannery. Utilities are pre-routed for a future elevator. The fully hardscaped backyard features a brick patio, wood decking, a vertical garden, water feature, and a gazebo, with a detached two-car garage and finished studio above, accessed via Austin Alley. The basement includes a second laundry area and abundant storage. Originally owned by Jacob Rosenstock and later the Lebherz family of Everedy Square, this property has been a cornerstone of Frederick’s architectural and entrepreneurial legacy for over a century. 203 East 2nd Street is more than a home. It is where historic integrity meets the highest standard of modern living. Timeless, elegant, and truly unforgettable.
