4400 Buchanan Avenue Baltimore, MD 21211

A crossbuck country fence runs along the Wood Heights sidewalk, turns tightly at Buchanan, and continues atop a stacked-stone retaining wall beneath the canopy of a spreading pin oak. Hiding behind the oak is a Medfield bungalow, its windowed porch waiting at the end of a bluestone path.The porch, a three-season space warmed by the sun through its louvered panes, leads to an easeful and open living area. A hallway connects two corner bedrooms and a shared full bath. Upstairs, the geometry created by the parallels and intersections of the roof gables, dormers, and eaves assigns charmed functions to each of the bedroom's quadrants: a place to sleep, a place to sit, perhaps a place to work. With sunlight arriving from all sides, the planked walls evoke the quaintness of a Nantucket cottage. On the lower level, recently updated flooring and lighting redefine the knotty-pine-paneled space. There is a half bath beside the rear entrance, while utility, storage, and laundry areas occupy the unfinished opposite side. From the kitchen, one steps onto the covered rear deck, conveniently built in an L-shape around the shed-roof carport. This corner lot reveals its generous size as the yard wraps completely around the home, with lawns extending to both the side and rear.Convenient to Cold Spring Lane, Falls Road, and I-83.
