2203 Southern Avenue Baltimore, MD 21214

THIS IS THE ONE — OFFSET UP TO HALF YOUR MORTGAGE PAYMENT.2203 Southern Avenue stands in a class of its own, offering a level of renovation quality, flexibility, and built-in financial advantage that no comparable property currently on the market can match. Unlike typical renovated homes in the area, this residence delivers two fully functional living spaces, thoughtfully designed for real-world use—not compromise—making it a smarter buy from day one.Set on a spacious, level, fully fenced lot in the heart of Morgan Park/Lauraville, the home is an easy walk to Morgan State University and minutes from major hospital campuses, downtown Baltimore, the Beltway, Whitemarsh, and Aberdeen Proving Ground—placing it squarely in the path of consistent, long-term rental demand. A complete top-to-bottom renovation includes high-efficiency triple-pane windows and a new Energy Star–rated HVAC system, delivering comfort, performance, and long-term savings rarely found in competing properties.The main residence lives like a high-end single-family home, featuring rich walnut flooring, recessed lighting, a formal dining room, and a beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen with custom solid-wood cabinetry, marble tilework, and all-new Samsung stainless steel appliances—including a full-size refrigerator. Just off the main living area is a first-floor laundry room with a full-size, Energy Star, front-loading Samsung washer and dryer, adding everyday convenience rarely seen in comparable homes.What truly separates this property from every other option available is the fully self-contained lower level. With its own private side entrance, bedroom, full bath, second kitchen with a refrigerator, and a dedicated lower-level laundry area featuring a stacked full-size washer and dryer, this space functions as a genuine apartment—not an afterthought. Ideal for multigenerational living, an au pair or in-law suite, or an income-producing rental, the lower level offers the ability to offset up to half of the monthly mortgage, a financial advantage unmatched by nearby listings. (Seller will install an interior security door between the first floor and lower level with a ratified contract.)Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and a stylish full bath provide comfortable private living, while outside, intentional landscaping, a new flagstone patio, and a fully fenced backyard create a quiet retreat rarely found within city limits.When compared side-by-side with other homes on the market, 2203 Southern Avenue delivers more flexibility, stronger rental upside, and a higher-quality renovation—making it not just a home, but one of the smartest purchases available in Northeast Baltimore today.
