About 452 W Bel Air Ave
Step back in time with the James Bramwell Baker House, a Queen Anne Victorian rich in history and character. Listed on both the Maryland Historic Register (1983) and the National Register of Historic Places (1984), this 5,000+ square-foot residence, with 960 square feet of covered porches, sits on 1.5 acres, offering a rare opportunity to restore a true architectural masterpiece to its former grandeur. This stately 7-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home boasts soaring 12-foot ceilings on the main level, hardwood floors throughout, and masterful woodwork in chestnut, cherry, maple, elm, and oak. Period details abound, from intricate moldings and multiple fireplaces with ornate mantels to stunning stained and beveled glass windows that fill the interior with colorful light. A striking three-story chestnut staircase stands as a testament to the craftsmanship of the era, adding to the home's timeless elegance. A 2,000-square-foot carriage house offers endless possibilities. With its expansive layout and historic charm, this property presents an incredible opportunity—not only as a private residence but also as a business venture. It is currently zoned residential, but was formerly commercial. While the home retains its architectural beauty and historic significance, it presents an exceptional opportunity for restoration and customization. If you’ve been searching for a one-of-a-kind Victorian, the Baker House is ready for its next chapter.
