PROMOTION: FOR THE MONTHS OF AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER, ENJOY A 15% DISCOUNT ON ALL DAYS OF THE WEEK! Welcome to Historic Dickeyville! Once a bustling village with paper and textile mills located within the Baltimore City limits, Dickeyville is named after the last mill owner, William J. Dickey. The Gwynn’s Falls, which once powered these mills, winds its way through the village and is now a scenic place for you to enjoy! Your home-away-from-home sits directly across from the Gwynns Falls river system and offers beautiful views of the surrounding 1,100 acres of natural forest. If you like serene, green habitats, you will love visiting Dickeyville. The property has a large mature perennial garden and front yard, with ample vehicle parking in front of the home as well as a pull in driveway for one car . The gardens are glorious starting in the Spring and provide for a lovely view from inside the home. The upstairs covered porch is a special place which to view the surrounding greenspaces and hear the sounds of the rushing water of the Gwynns Falls. I believe you will enjoy the serenity and country feel of historic Dickeyville, MD!
Originally from New England, I moved to Washington DC to attend Graduate School. After living and working in DC for many years I made a decision to move to Baltimore because I found this historic home in Dickeyville, MD and fell in love! I have lived here for over 11 years and couldn't be happier! My own home is situated in Dickeyville, as well, and I am available (usually) 24/7 for any questions or concerns.
Guests mostly enjoy that they are so close to all that Baltimore has to offer, whether to visit family or attend professional and sporting events, all the while being surrounded by 1,100 acres of natural forest the Gwynn Falls river (directly across the street from the home); the friendliness and quietness of the neighborhood; biking and hiking through the park; days and nights sitting on the covered porch enjoying conversation or just relaxing; access to stores and restaurants all within a 5 minute drive, the spaciousness and historic features of the home; family dinners in the home with a fully equipped kitchen; and 24 hour access to your host for any questions or concerns.
