Elegant 1920 brownstone in Baltimore, Maryland has 6bd. 5ba. and is listed for $649,900.

Isn’t the entrance hall amazing? The foyer is lovely, but the leaded glass inner door, that bench & mirror, the floor & ceiling are all stunning. Love the wainscoting and wallpaper, also.

Oh, this is stunning. Look at that ceiling. The curves! The flooring, wainscoting, fireplace and windows are all amazing, and so is the wallpaper.

Check out the light fixture on the right.

Functional pocket doors open to the 2nd sitting room. It’s so artsy. Love that fireplace, crown molding and ceiling medallion.

What an elegant room.

This home is just one stunning room after another. The fireplaces and ceilings are incredible. And. look at the chandelier.

Hall behind the entrance leads to the kitchen.

Nice, simple remodel. The cabinetry matches the wood in the rest of the home, and they left that wonderful fireplace. How often do you see such a beautiful fireplace in a kitchen?

Behind the fireplace is this lovely sunny space for dining.

Beautiful, spacious vintage guest powder room.

Wow, this is the right way to restore a vintage bath. Love this so much. I can’t understand why people do modern baths when they reno. This is fabulous. Notice how the green in the tile matches the tub’s paint.

These rooms just get better. This is gorgeous. I love their choice of paint colors and wallpapers. This room may actually be the dining room.

Spacious bedroom with an en-suite is so pretty.

It looks like they may have added a shower in this bathroom that was originally just a 1/2 bath.

Another beautiful fireplace. Since older homes sometimes lack closets in the bedrooms, they’ve placed one in the room that matches the flooring.

This bd. is huge, and so beautiful.

Look at the stained glass skylight in the hall.

Another wonderful vintage bath restoration.

This home has such beautiful stained glass windows.

The two remaining of the 6 bds. are sunny and bright and have been refurbished.

The 5th vintage bath. Every bath is amazing, but I think that this one goes with an apt. in the home.

This is a small apt. that hasn’t been completely redone.

The basement is nice, not spooky at all. Looks like there’s a nice storage closet back there, too.

In love with this home.

Around the block is a garage which is worth gold in a city, and look at the porch above.

Passage to the garage.

Behind the garage is a tiny area that could be a cute place to sit or put a little grill. Not much of a yard, but that’s city life. I’d be happy to have a private area like this.

In love with this 1928 mansion in Los Angeles, California. Only $9.885M.

Just look at the gold walls. Isn’t that perfect? Gold would look stupid in a normal house, but it suits this one. Love the cascading ivy, too.

It’s a huge house, but this room is cozy.

This would definitely be livin’ the dream. Look at the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Can you imagine a living room like this? It’s amazing. That fireplace and the ceiling.

Isn’t this stunning?

I guess this chandelier conveys, but not sure I like it.

Dinner is served. Let us adjourn to the dining room thru the stately columned arch.

The simplicity- Walls of windows provide the scenery from the gardens.

The kitchen is simple, like the rest of the uncluttered decor of the house.

Pantry/breakfast room has doors to the garden.

Conversation area.

Main bd. of 5.

Beautiful place for morning coffee.

Original art decor bath.

Plus, it has a great closet.

The bds. are all lovely and a generous size.

The baths are all fabulous, too.

Look at this interesting room- the bed is in a partial cubby.

Each bath is better than the last.

They have a yoga room.

This is the dome you see on the top of the house from the outside.

It leads to the roof-top deck. How beautiful is this?

Has a great view of Los Angeles. What a great house.
