About This Home
2203 Southern Ave. presents a compelling opportunity for both new and seasoned investors to establish or expand a high-performing rental portfolio. Ideally positioned near major hospitals, colleges, universities, and other anchor institutions, this property benefits from consistent, diversified rental demand. Its flexible layout supports multiple income strategies, including long-term rentals, short-term or furnished housing for healthcare professionals and students, multigenerational living, or Airbnb use (buyer to verify). Alternatively, an owner-occupant can reside in the primary living space while offsetting monthly expenses by leasing the fully self-contained lower level—creating an efficient and strategic path to wealth-building through real estate. This beautifully reimagined residence set on a spacious, level, fully fenced lot in the heart of the Morgan Park/Lauraville community of Northeast Baltimore. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Morgan State University, major medical centers, downtown Baltimore, the Beltway, Whitemarsh, and Aberdeen Proving Ground, this home offers exceptional convenience without sacrificing privacy or charm. This complete top-to-bottom transformation includes new high-efficiency triple-pane windows throughout and a new Energy Star–rated HVAC system with digital thermostat, delivering year-round comfort and long-term energy savings. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a lasting impression. A thoughtfully curated front yard, generous driveway, and elegant flagstone pavers lead to a screened-in porch that feels like an outdoor living room—perfect for entertaining or easily convertible to year-round space. Rustic flooring spans the length of this inviting porch, setting the tone for the refined interiors beyond. Inside, rich walnut flooring flows throughout the main level, beginning in the spacious living room accented by soft-glow, high-efficiency recessed lighting. The formal dining room is equally impressive, easily accommodating large gatherings and anchored by a brushed-nickel Arts & Crafts chandelier that brings warmth and character to the space. The gourmet chef’s kitchen is both timeless and contemporary, featuring an abundance of custom solid-wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers and doors, brushed-nickel hardware, custom white marble tilework, and all-new Samsung stainless steel appliances. Just beyond, a versatile rear room functions beautifully as a family room, den, or library, continuing the walnut flooring found throughout the main living areas. At the rear of the home, a charming mudroom/laundry area showcases classic brick flooring in a herringbone pattern and includes a full-size stacked Samsung Energy Saver front-loading washer and dryer, along with a convenient powder room. The lower level truly sets this home apart. Designed with a cool, serene, mid-century modern aesthetic, this space offers a large family or recreation room, a full bath, and a sleek kitchenette featuring custom cabinetry that mirrors the main kitchen—finished here with matte black hardware for a bold, sophisticated look. A second full-size Samsung washer and dryer are tucked into a utility closet, and a private bedroom with window and closet completes the level. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a well-appointed primary bedroom with walnut flooring continued from the main level. The additional bedrooms feature plush carpeting, remote-controlled ceiling fans, and newly installed solid-wood six-panel doors throughout. A spacious full bath with custom tilework serves this level with style and functionality.Outdoors, the home is framed by peaceful, intentional landscaping, including newly planted evergreens in both the front and rear yard, a fully fenced backyard, and a new flagstone patio—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. 2203 Southern Avenue is the best value for sale right now in 21214.
