3814 FLEETWOOD Ave

This grand prairie-inspired colonial revival home is absolutely stunning inside and out.

The exterior presents with quiet confidence. Clean lines, balanced proportions, and a commanding wraparound covered porch that immediately sets the tone. Crisp white columns and railings contrast against deep slate-blue siding, while the prominent gables and dormers add vertical presence. It is stately and timeless.

That presence extends across a rare half-acre lot; an almost unheard of footprint within Baltimore City. Fully enclosed by a white and cedar picket fence, the property creates a defined, private compound that still feels open and inviting. Entry to the grounds off the rear driveway through an arched trellis introduces a sequence of outdoor spaces: established vegetable and flower gardens, open lawn, and distinct areas for gathering and retreat. A substantial side deck expands the home’s living space outward, built for both scale and function, while a separate patio offers a more grounded, intimate setting. The five-car driveway and ample street parking provides uncommon urban capacity without sacrificing the integrity of the landscape. Taken together, the architecture and grounds deliver something rarely available in this market: scale, usability, and design coherence on land that simply doesn’t exist in most of the city.

Enter the front door into a grand foyer, and you are immediately greeted by the home's presence. High ceilings, crown molding, wainscoting, hardwood floors, and a sweeping staircase tell you that you have arrived . Transom windows, which are carried consistently throughout the home, draw natural light deeper into the interior while adding a layer of period authenticity that’s increasingly difficult to find intact.

The main level offers a practical, well-connected layout with high ceilings and consistent natural light throughout. The living room is proportioned for everyday use, with multiple windows, hardwood floors, and direct adjacency to the foyer and dining areas for easy flow.

The dining room is scaled to accommodate a full-size table and larger gatherings, enhanced by a coffered ceiling, wainscoting, and multiple exposures that keep the space bright without sacrificing wall space for furniture or art.

The kitchen is designed for functionality and beauty, featuring a central island with seating, ample cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless appliances. Built-in storage and extended counter space support both daily use and entertaining. Lighting schematics include pendant, recessed, under counter, and accent. Direct access to the deck provides a straightforward indoor-outdoor connection. Kitchen appliances are all less than 5 years old.

A rear foyer/mudroom entry adds utility, offering a secondary access point with durable finishes and additional storage potential. Off the rear foyer, the full bath is efficiently laid out with a corner shower, pedestal sink, and natural light; well-positioned for guests and gardener.

The first floor spaces prioritize usability, circulation, and ceiling height, with consistent finishes and logical transitions between rooms. Tastefully done.

The second floor has three large bedrooms and a laundry room with new washer and dryer. Continuing the theme on the first floor, are the frosted glass on the pantry door and transom windows, the high ceilings, and the wide hallway. Bedrooms have high-end closet organization systems, and the primary bedroom on this floor features a walk-in closet that could double as an office.

The third floor functions as a private suite, featuring vaulted ceilings, a wet ba,r and a full bath with both a separate shower and jetted soaking tub. Ideal for use as a primary bedroom level, guest suite, or extended-stay space.

Two heating and cooling zones add energy efficiency.

The lower level offers additional storage or workshop space and is newly waterproofed, has a bathroom rough-in, and is ready for you to finish.
