Small community with a confined feel

Hidden in the shadows of industry, Orangeville is a small neighborhood separated from the bustle of city life by chemical plants, steel mills and soda bottling factories. The residential streets are just two blocks deep and five blocks long, with very few access points, one of which passes under a tiny railway bridge. Though the community has a confined feel, its location near employment hubs also makes for easy access to public transit and major highways.

Orangeville has lots of mature growth trees and green space for residents to enjoy.

Victorian-style houses and rowhomes line Orangeville's streets

Houses in Orangeville consist of standalone single-family homes, duplexes and rowhouse options. Prospective buyers can choose from Victorian-style properties with wooden shingles and wrap-around front porches or opt for smaller bungalows. They will also find national and stick homes dotted throughout the neighborhood. Duplexes here offer painted brick or wood-sided styles with small front porches, while row homes feature the traditional Baltimore design of redbrick facades. Prices start at $120,000 for a home needing modern updates, while a renovated home may be listed for $250,000. Due to Orangeville’s industrial nature, tree cover is limited, but sidewalks are lining the streets, making it easy to traverse the area on foot. Driveways and garages are also a rarity, which is why many homeowners park on the street.

Easy commutes to manufacturing companies

Being located amidst a hub of production, those working for companies like Goetze’s Candy Company, Coca-Cola, Tenax and others within the auto-repair industry will have many options close at hand and very short commutes. For those who need to travel throughout the rest of the city for work or play, there are Maryland Transit Administration bus stops along East Monument Street, Edison Highway and Erdman Avenue. Orangeville’s direct access to U.S. Route 40 will get residents to downtown Baltimore, less than 3.5 miles west, along with other popular spots, including Fells Point and the Inner Harbor. It also links locals to medical care at The Johns Hopkins University, 2 miles away. Also nearby is Interstate 895, which people take for nearly 16 miles to reach Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.

Local eatery garners national attention on Food Network

A longtime Baltimore staple, Chaps Pit Beef has been serving up ribs and beef sandwiches to locals since the late 1980s. The no-frills eatery less than a mile from Orangeville’s residential streets even captured the attention of Guy Fieri and was featured on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. In a city known for its crab dishes, Blake’s Crab House is a local favorite, selling steamed seafood by the bushel. Additional shopping and dining options cluster along Pulaski Highway and Erdman Avenue. Grocery essentials can be found at ALDI, which is less than a mile away. Several fast-food options like McDonalds, Popeyes and Taco Bell are situated near the big box grocer.

Pocket playground and pagoda offering city views

At the corner of Eager and Janney streets is Orangeville Community Park, a small pocket of space carved out for a playground, giving kids a place to get fresh air. For a livelier outdoor scene, locals head south to Patterson Park to explore more than 130 acres of green space packed with basketball and tennis courts, an ice rink and a fenced-in dog park. In the center of all the action is Patterson Park Boat Lake, where people cast a line into the water hoping to catch a fish. To get a birds-eye view of the park and the surrounding city, climb to the top of the three-story pagoda and step out onto the wrap-around observation deck. Nearby Herring Run Park offers waterfront views, with its namesake stream running the length of the park, flanked by mature trees and walking trails.
