Description
Welcome to 9 melvin avenue, a stunning american foursquare beautifully blending historic charm with modern convenience. situated on a picturesque tree-lined street in the heart of catonsville, this home is just minutes from the iconic 4th of july parade route, local shops, and vibrant community spots.
inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed layout with tall ceilings, heart pine and hardwood floors with walnut inlay, and charming craftsman-style moldings. generous room openings allow for seamless flow between the foyer, living, and dining areas, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. the light-filled home office, located off the living room, easily adapts as a library, music room, or creative space. the remodeled kitchen showcases high-end custom cabinetry, silestone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a butler's pantry for added storage. recent enhancements include a premium front-control dual fuel range (2025), offering precision cooking and modern style. the space flows effortlessly into a bright and inviting family room with a high-heat gas fireplace featuring a raised hearth, expansive windows, and a renewal by andersen sliding door (2023) that opens to the backyard. in 2024, new fixtures and custom draperies were added to the family room, elevating both comfort and design. the main level also includes a dedicated laundry room, mudroom entry, and a powder room, ensuring convenience and functionality for everyday living.
upstairs, the owner’s suite is a true retreat with a luxurious private bath and an oversized walk-in closet with a custom organizer system. in 2024, primary bathroom fixtures and faucets were replaced, adding modern elegance and functionality. three additional generously sized bedrooms—each with ceiling fans and built-ins—and a beautifully updated hall bath complete the second level.
the lower level offers a unique space for relaxation and creativity, featuring a second family room with natural wood wainscoting, a tin ceiling, and its own outside entrance. an expansive unfinished area provides endless possibilities for a workshop, hobby room, or additional storage. the water line from the street to the house was replaced with copper piping in 2024, ensuring reliability and efficiency.
featured on the catonsville historic house tour, this residence is a standout with its inviting wrap-around porch—partially screened for comfort—and a fully fenced, beautifully landscaped backyard. perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings, the outdoor space includes a custom playhouse (complete with electricity), expansive patio, and lush gardens filled with perennials and flowering shrubs for year-round beauty. leaf filter covers were added to all gutters in 2024 for easy maintenance, and the channel drain on the exterior patio was replaced that same year.
conveniently located near catonsville’s shops, dining, concert venues, farmers markets, trolley trails, patapsco state park, and local events like “food truck thursdays,” this home truly embodies the charm and community spirit of catonsville living.
