The neighborhood of New Northwood in Northeast Baltimore is a residential community located beside Chinquapin Run Park. Featuring a population of nearly 6000 residents and bordered by the major throughfares of The Alameda and Loch Raven Boulevard, New Northwood offers prospective buyers' cozy homes and a convenient location, with direct access to local universities and amenities.

Housing options in New Northwood consist primarily of brick row houses built in the early 1950s, but the area also offers some single-family homes in minimalist designs like bungalows and cottages, as well as a variety of apartment options. The average sales price here is $200,000, with price points varying depending on the age, size and condition of the property. Residents enjoy their community's layout which ensures that homes are plotted away from the curb, and feature short sidewalks, small front yards and short front stoops. Lawns here are well-manicured and many residents enjoy embellishing their spaces with leafy potted plants and decorative awnings.

Students here attend Baltimore City Public Schools, like Lois T. Murray Elementary/Middle School and Merganthaler Vocational-Technical High. Serving over 1600 students, Mergenthaler Vocational-Technical High School, or MERVO as it’s called colloquially, offers a college-preparatory curriculum as well as career-centered programming. Students can earn industry licenses or certifications in more than a dozen pathways, ranging from construction & development skills—like electrical and masonry trades, to health & bioscience skills—like nursing assistant and pharmacy technician roles. For higher learning opportunities, New Northwood is also two miles from both the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus and Morgan State University. Sign up for a course or attend a free local cultural event to learn something new.

For all your daily essentials the recently constructed Northwood Commons offers residents access to a variety of retailers in one convenient location. Get ready to chow down on some tasty wings from casual eateries like Hip Hop Chicken & Fish, find some great deals at the Family Dollar store, and knock out your grocery shopping at the Lidl Food Market. Or if you're looking for a wider variety of retailers, another excellent option is the Belvedere Market located a short five minutes' drive north. Offering a variety of restaurants, boutiques, and good eat, you won’t run out of new things to try here. Pull up a seat at Atwater’s bar and enjoy a coffee, soup, or gourmet sandwich on house-baked bread. Or for the savory lover in you, a stop at Neopol’s is a must. Serving up smoked meats, seafood, and cheese pies that fly off the shelves, these are some of the best smoked goods on this side of the Atlantic.

And for a change of pace and some time outdoors, residents can spend hours relaxing at Chinquapin Run Park. Featuring 76-acres of lush green spaces along the Chinquapin stream corridor, you can explore this park's lush plant life and dense tree coverage while taking a walk or enjoying a picnic. Or if you're feeling more active, the park's playground, athletic fields and tennis courts are a great way to fit in some exercise too.
