Incredible opportunity to restore a unique, very large, historically significant property in an amazing Bolton Hill location. This estate sale includes both 1202 Bolton St - the main house, and 1200 Bolton St - a former shop that has been converted into a studio apartment. Charles Fox, noted Baltimore florist, built the main house in 1900, as well as the adjoining structure the same year. The large, 3 story main house was his personal residence, while the attached building was his flower shop. Behind both buildings is a very large lot for the neighborhood - 700 sq ft behind 1200 and 1,400 sq ft behind 1202, totaling a huge 2,100 yard with brick walls with doorways separating them. The main house is 3,600 sq ft, and is currently set up as follows: 1st floor - large living and dining rooms, a main staircase and a rear staircase, a half bathroom, and a good-sized kitchen with access to the rear yard. 2nd floor - two bedrooms, a den, and a full bathroom. 3rd floor - 2 bedrooms, a den, a second kitchen, and a full bathroom. Basement - runs the full length of the house, and has tall enough ceilings to finish this space, and walkout stairs to the rear yard. The main house has original wood floors, very tall ceilings, some original molding, and many, many windows flooding it with natural light. Because the house is partially detached on one side and 1200 is only one story tall, much of the main house feels fully detached. 1200 Bolton (situated at the corner of Bolton and Dolphin Streets) is 560 sq ft one one level, and features a main room with huge storefront windows, a kitchen with access to the rear yard, and a full bathroom. 1200 also has central air conditioning. The main home does currently have water damage and the presence of both mold and lead paint, but both properties had full roof replacements in 2022. The studio at 1200 is in better condition, but also could use some deep cleaning and light renovation. The possibilities are many - the third floor kitchen and den could be combined to make a 6th bedroom, there is an opportunity to expand or add full bathrooms in the large floorplan, and the basement could be partially or fully finished. The current studio apartment could be rented out for a great income stream, or used as an office, music or art studio, or whatever else you can imagine. The large backyard offers endless possibilities. At one point in time, the previous owners had off-street parking accessed via Dolphin St, so that is a possibility too. Don't miss the opportunity to return this piece of Baltimore history to its former glory. Interior photos and floor plans will be added soon. The properties are located in the Midtown Special Benefits District and and subject to an additional annual tax of $583.52 and $232.49 respectively.
