Tucked beneath one of Baltimore's most beautiful mature tree canopies, Berkeley House stands with the quiet elegance of a 1920s architectural gem--stucco facade, classical detailing, and large multi-pane windows designed to fill each home with natural light. Set in the heart of Tuscany-Canterbury, Unit 2B is a rare residence where history, sunlight, and everyday ease come together just steps from Johns Hopkins, Wyman Park, and the best of north-Baltimore living.
Inside, the scale and character of pre-war architecture immediately stand out: soaring ceilings, wide hallways with rich millwork, arched doorways, and the warm glow of 28 restored original windows. With south, east, and west exposures, the home is bright from morning to sunset, offering calming treetop and courtyard views throughout.
The gracious living room features original hardwood floors, a working gas fireplace, and a sweeping arched opening into the formal dining room--an airy, window-lined space ideal for entertaining. A corner sunroom, surrounded on all sides by glass, makes a wonderful home office, creative studio, or potential third bedroom.
The kitchen blends classic charm and functionality with checkerboard floors, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and leafy views. Two large bedrooms anchor the private wing, each with its own full bath. The renovated ensuite bathroom is especially striking with deep navy tile, brass fixtures, and a boutique-inspired design.
Thoughtful updates throughout respect the home's architectural integrity: preserved hardware, plaster archways, period moldings, and soft, sophisticated color palettes.
Berkeley House offers the feel of a private, residential enclave with only eight units, landscaped grounds, and a fenced backyard garden shared by the building. Unit 2B includes a private garage plus two additional outdoor parking spaces--a rare advantage in this highly walkable neighborhood.
