Baltimore City is home to nine universities and colleges, and as students, professors, and staff return to the city’s campuses, I thought it would be fun to highlight homes for sale near some of these institutions of higher learning.
Here are three real estate listings near universities and colleges in Baltimore with prices ranging from $320,000 to $799,000.
