About This Home
As of April 2025Welcome to this enchanting and tastefully renovated Otterbein home, offering a clean, contemporary aesthetic while maintaining its warmth and historic charm. 609 S. Sharp Street is one-of-a-kind, so be prepared to fall in love. Offering three levels of bright, fully renovated open spaces, this 2 bedroom, 2 full-bath home feels spacious and inviting at every turn.
Enter through the living room and adjoining dining room area, adored by a fireplace, an exposed brick wall, and illuminated by the 3-story atrium-style windows that flood the home with natural light. Your eyes will immediately be drawn to the beautiful and uniquely remodeled kitchen, which features soapstone and stainless steel counters, ample cabinetry and built-ins, a Smeg gas range with a rangehood, Fisher and Paykel 2 double dishwashers, a built-in beverage fridge, a large stainless steel farmhouse style sink, reclaimed wood wall shelves, and lovely glass tile backsplash. French doors off the kitchen open to an inviting, fenced, bluestone patio and rock garden that backs to Concert Park, one of Otterbein’s most beautiful parks.
A custom, contemporary staircase with steel railings leads you to the light-filled, open second level. The versatile office/den area features a vaulted ceiling and a large skylight that streams natural light from the 3rd level. The second-floor bedroom has beautiful original heart pine floors, a decorative fireplace, and an exposed brick wall. You'll appreciate the vanity area and a large walk-in closet outside the bedroom. The remodeled full bathroom features a walk-in shower, heated floors, and a heated towel rack with sunny Eastern views overlooking Concert Park. A convenient laundry room, rarely found in homes like these, features a front-loading washer and dryer, extra storage space, and so many built-ins and storage options.
Continue to the bright 3rd level, where you’ll find the loft-style primary bedroom overlooking the 2nd level with a large skylight overhead, exposed brick wall, and another large walk-in closet. The remodeled ensuite bathroom has a glass shower, freestanding soaking tub, and towel warmer. You’ll feel as if you entered a beautiful spa!
Importantly, this great Otterbein location offers ease of parking (Area 8, permit only!) and an excellent east/west orientation, providing the best settings for sunny mornings and cooler evening entertainment on the rear patio and gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. Significant enhancements in the last 10 years include an updated A/C system, double pane replacement windows throughout the home, and new flooring and appliances throughout. Last but not least, a coveted transferable membership to the Otterbein Swim Club enables the lucky owner to bypass the multi-year waiting list. Otterbein is a perfect neighborhood for those who appreciate beautiful architecture and multiple pristine parks. A stone’s throw from two major league stadiums, the Inner Harbor, restaurants, and the Marc Train and I95 for easy commuting.
