Baltimore City is home to nine universities and colleges. As students, professors and staff return to campuses across the city, I thought it would be fun to highlight homes for sale near some of these higher education institutions.

Here are three real estate listings near Baltimore universities and colleges priced between $320,000 and $799,000.
