Original Northwood pairs storybook architecture with thoughtful planning in north-central Baltimore. Dating to the 1930s, its Tudor and Colonial Revival homes, curving lanes, and leafy pocket parks reflect a garden-neighborhood vision still championed by the Original Northwood Association. With a quiet residential feel and quick access to city life, you’re minutes from Govans, Guilford, and Lauraville.
Daily living is convenient. The Morgan State University campus nearby adds lectures, galleries, and Division I athletics to your calendar, while the reimagined Northwood Commons brings groceries, dining, and services together. Outdoor time is easy at the Lake Montebello fitness loop and the wooded trails of Herring Run Park. Spring displays at Sherwood Gardens are a short drive away. Northern Parkway, Perring Parkway, and the Harford/York Road corridors keep commutes straightforward to Towson and downtown.
Families are served by Baltimore City Public Schools, with well-regarded options nearby such as Baltimore City College, plus enrichment and community programs tied to Morgan State. Neighbors organize block gatherings, garden tours, and volunteer efforts that underscore the area’s pride of place and enduring character.
If you’re considering a move, Original Northwood offers architectural distinction, parks, and practicality in equal measure. And when it’s time to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can introduce you to a top local real estate agent who knows the neighborhood inside and out.
