Fells Point is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Baltimore. You’ll find charming architecture and cobblestone streets, some of the city’s best restaurants and shopping and easy access to the water.

Originally a gritty maritime neighborhood, today, Fells Point is a vibrant, well-preserved neighborhood with lots to offer. There’s also a variety of housing options, from waterfront condos, charming historic rowhouses or newer townhomes.

Here are four unique real estate listings in the neighborhood, priced between $495,000-$925,000.
