Baltimore-based
A&R Development has just put on the sales block the first residential new construction to be sold on the 80-acre campus being redeveloped by East Baltimore Development Inc. The five row houses constitute the first of 49 that will be built under the Townes at
Eagar banner.
A&R bills the homes as having "timeless architectural lines with a contemporary urban flair" and is promoting their proximity to the Science and Technology Park, the
Johns Hopkins Medical Campus and the
Kennedy Krieger Institute, just two blocks away.
The exteriors feature brick fa�ade, bay windows, contemporary designs, built-in garages, professional landscaping, balconies and white, reflective TPO roofing, while the interiors boast two-to-three bedrooms, 2.5-to-3.5 baths, open floor plans, walk-in closets, high ceilings, designer light fixtures and a choice of more than 20 shades of Mohawk carpet. Buyers may also choose form more than a dozen upgrade features, including hardwood floors, modern granite countertops, stainless steel GE appliances, crown- and chair moulding, an intercom system and wireless security systems.
What makes these homes so unusual, according to A&R's Feras Qumseya is their size vis-�-vis the typical city residence. They run from 1,765 to 2,638 square feet and include attached garages.
"These are humongous units that you really don't find, even brand new, in the Baltimore area," Qumseya says. "We are using urban and modern styles to really accommodate the young and professional lifestyle."
Prices start in the low 200's. A&R's marketing center for the Townes at Eagar is located at 855 N. Wolfe, and additional information is available at the Web site.
