What’s better than one home…? TWO! 519–521 S Hanover Street offers a rare opportunity in Otterbein: a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom main house paired with a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom carriage house above an attached two-car garage. Set on an end-unit lot in one of the neighborhood’s most charming pockets, this is one of just seven homes of its kind, built during Otterbein’s revitalization following the iconic dollar home program. Over the years, the home has quietly built its own story, with rumored stays from Anthony Bourdain during his time in Baltimore back when it was owned by the Phillips Seafood family, and even the occasional pancake stop from Baltimore legend, Cal Ripken Jr. Inside the main house at 521 S Hanover, a welcoming foyer leads to a spacious office or family room, a powder room, and a functional mudroom with extra storage. Upstairs, the main living level feels bright and expansive, with kitchen, dining, and living spaces flowing together. Windows on three sides fill the home with natural light, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the space. A sliding door opens to a private terrace where you might enjoy a morning coffee or a cool summer evening by the grill. One level above is dedicated entirely to the owner’s suite, complete with a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with a double vanity. The top floor offers two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. Just beyond the small rear yard, the carriage house at 519 S Hanover feels like its own private retreat. This fully separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom space includes a full kitchen and a lofted bedroom overlooking the living area. Whether used as a rental, guest suite, au pair space, or tucked-away office, it offers incredible flexibility. And below it all, a true two-car garage. Such a perk for city living! Recent updates include new roofs on both the main house and carriage house (2024), new kitchen appliances in the carriage house, fresh paint throughout much of the home, replaced carpeting, and more. Otterbein has a way of feeling both tucked away and deeply connected. With its quiet, tree-lined streets and seven pocket parks, it offers a sense of calm just moments from the Inner Harbor, Camden Yards, and Federal Hill. It’s a neighborhood rich in history and community, and this home captures that feeling beautifully, with just a little extra to offer.
