About This Home

As of November 2024

Take a leisurely stroll to the iconic Inner Harbor, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere, or catch an exciting game at Camden Yards, less than two blocks away.
Commuting couldn't be easier with quick access to major highways and the commuter train station just past Camden Yards, making this a most delightful location for any commuter.
Upon entering, 656 Melvin Drive welcomes you with open arms. Boasting 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths in just over 900 Square feet, this home offers ample space for comfortable living.
