About this home

Stunning, revitalized Bolton Hill home on a sought-after private block on John Street. Built in 1850, this home echoes the historic integrity and uniqueness you love, but the homeowner has meticulously updated it, blending the soul of Charm City with modern living so you can move right in. The first floor welcomes you with an iconic vestibule and a massive living room featuring a large front window and a marble wood-burning fireplace surrounded by built-ins. From the living room, you will find a grand dining room with custom cabinets, two XO wine and beverage refrigerators, and an antique library ladder (2021).
