4316 Roland Ave, Baltimore, MD 21210

This 5-bedroom, thoughtfully designed house on the "Roland Court" cul-de-sac is enhanced by period architectural interior and exterior detail including high ceilings with detailed crown moldings and baseboards, gleaming hardwood floors throughout, and inviting rooms in a well-designed floorplan that facilitates comfortable flow and enhances entertaining with privacy in its rear yard oasis and social outdoor common space enjoyed by the Court's neighbors. The architect's thoughtful design allows this homeowner to enjoy the outdoors via large paned windows throughout that make it evident that was the goal. The house sits three back from the main roadway on a Court that allows the homeowner to enjoy the view of the grassy and tree-bountied garden instead of the main roadway. A first-floor entrance hall flows into the welcoming living room with fireplace then into a large dining room amended by an all-window walk-through from kitchen to garden and offers a powder room. The renovated kitchen provides a direct entrance into the voluminous garden surrounding three sides of the house. This house has the largest private yard of the dozen in the Court, elegantly beautified by a brick wall between this and its neighbor's yard. The yard is a private, beautiful, relaxing, and elegant space that serves as an oasis for the home's owner and guests. Two parking spaces also convey; one directly in front and another on the Court. The upstairs rooms are large and comfortable; the second floor is a set that could serve as an accommodating primary "suite of rooms" including a large primary bedroom with private balcony, a bathroom that has both hall and bedroom entrances, a substantial room with a fireplace that serves now as an inviting den, and a large closet room with elegant built-ins to accommodate and maximize the size of the bedrooms. The third floor includes three bedrooms and a full bathroom with "ball & claw" soaking bathtub/shower. The full-footprint, dry basement provides a solid concrete floor and currently serves as a traditional basement that is well lit and includes workshop, laundry, and a "flush" toilet for the gardener's and launderer’s convenience. Its large open space will provide endless possibilities for use including storage, hobby space, play area, office, workout on solid concrete floors that withstand the equipment use, workshop, etc.. Pedestrian accessibility to Hampden, Rotunda, Roland Park, Evergreen and ready access to transportation I-83, AMTRAK nearby, light rail, and bus routes enhance its appeal. Many public and private schools are within walking distance. The owner just replaced the hidden rear gutter and maintains the solid 200-year "peach bottom slate" roof with a Black Diamond contract. All windows on the second and third floors were replaced eight years ago and four original remain (three on 1st fl and one of 2nd fl). The chimney was recently repointed when the Seller had the brick exterior assessed and was assured of its excellent condition. A transferable home warranty covers interior and exterior electrical and power lines, furnace, and A/C and it was used to replace the hot water heater in 2024. Note photographer's floor plan for the second fl is missing dressing room & balcony so is being corrected,,,, This lovely house's indoor and outdoor amenities and location are reflected in the Court's desirability as the location for its next homeowner and perhaps the family's future generations.
