The Great Outdoors
Your home at Hopkins Row has the best of both worlds spacious indoor living bathed in light, and outdoor living spaces that extend the enjoyment to the rooftop. The designers looked for and found places throughout the building where they created outdoor living spaces.
Start with your front porch. You won’t see a real front porch on most new city homes, but it’s a Baltimore tradition worth honoring. The porch is a place to relax during or at the end of your day, and it’s a place to sit and meet your neighbors. The Hopkins Row porch is covered and lighted to give you protection from the elements as well as security. It’s spacious enough for outdoor seating, and includes a secure area that can be used for out-of-season storage.
Then discover the jewel of a courtyard just outside the studio level. You will have the feeling of being in a secret place, open to the air but sheltered from the world. Will it be a contemplative oriental environment? Perhaps you will create a lush garden? Whatever you make of it, the courtyard might become your favorite retreat.
More porches await as you ascend through this multi-level home. Outside your bedroom you might add a personal deck; the door is in place and ready for the addition. Then get a breath of fresh air with your morning coffee on the personal-sized porch just outside the dining area.
A few steps up on the Loft Level is yet another balcony, this one facing the street. Bring your chair out and enjoy the evening air. Bring a book if you like the roof overhang includes lights to extend the living space and enjoyment.
One more open air space awaits you the Roof Deck. With the complete outdoor kitchen this could be your favorite place for entertaining or just relaxing. With hot and cold running water, a sink and countertop, gas grill and gas burners, everything you need is here for cooking out all year round. Watch the sun come up or the stars at night from the Roof Deck you’ll be able to see it all.
Porches, balconies, and open air decks… outdoor living is built in at Hopkins Row.
