2739 SAINT PAUL STREET Baltimore MD 21218

You gotta love this block. Grand buildings have a sense of class and a sense of mass! Rounded bow windows on the front, with detailed roman cornice work and accent stone below the window, make these really handsome buildings along the 2700 block of Saint Paul Street. 3,422 sq.ft. of building area above grade, with three full floors (no cutting backspace on the third floor), the room sizes are quite generous and spacious with high ceilings and historic character including crown moldings and decorative fireplace mantels. In addition to the upper floors, the terrace is built out as living space.

This building is zoned for 3 dwelling units (first floor and second floor front, 2nd floor rear, and third floor) and 1 rooming unit in the terrace or basement level. The Terrace-level unit is quite large, the only difference being that you technically cannot have a stove in the kitchen.

Apt 1 is a two-story unit with a large living room, dining room, huge kitchen, bathroom on the first floor and an interior stair leading to a large second bedroom in the second floor front of the building. Apt 1 has a full-size washer-dryer in the apartment. Apt 2 is the second floor rear, with one-bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bath. Apt 3 is a 2-bedroom full floor apartment (about 1,000 sq.ft. of space). The Terrace is a large one-bedroom apartment. Terrace and third floor are currently vacant.

The building features 400-Amps of electric service with 100-Amp service to each apartment. There are 3 gas meters. The building has one gas boiler circulating hot water through a radiator system, so the owner pays the heat. The building has one gas water heater, so the owner pays the hot water for the building.

The Terrace Apartment had water penetration from a leak from the building next door. The owner did nothing to remediate this situation, so the Terrace Apartment has significant mold throughout the unit, so this vacant apartment needs to have all drywall removed and gutted and rebuilt.

The property is located 4 blocks from the Johns Hopkins University Campus. More importantly, the Johns Hopkins University free shuttle bus stops in front of this building at the corner of 27th Street and Saint Paul. This quickly and easily takes students and workers to Penn Station, Peabody Conservatory School of Music, and on to the East Baltimore Hospital and Research Campus of Johns Hopkins Hospital.
