This stunning part of Frederick's history has been reimaged for modern living. 40 S. Bentz Street is a charming 1924 row house nestled in the heart of downtown Frederick and steps to Carroll Creek Linear Park, the MARC train, and the vibrant downtown scene. It is beautifully updated and seamlessly blends historic charm with modern conveniences. The gourmet custom-built kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring cherry cabinets, elegant granite countertops, a solid maple butcher block, and custom drawer pulls. High-end appliances, including a six-burner Thermador gas cooktop with downdraft and a Bosch convection wall oven, coupled with a built-in dishwasher, make it a chef’s dream. The space is enhanced with custom handblown pendant lights and specialty-finished custom tile, adding warmth and character.  Throughout the home, you’ll find thoughtful details such as exposed brick walls, elegant plaster finishes, a charming fireplace, and recycled American chestnut flooring, all highlighting its historic appeal. Upstairs, durable LVP flooring ensures modern comfort and style.  A spiral staircase leads to the updated bath and a cozy loft-style bedroom. The bathroom, tastefully designed with modern updates, opens to a second-floor back porch—perfect for enjoying fresh air. A brand-new GE single-unit washer/dryer adds convenience to this well-appointed home.  Step outside to the fenced rear yard, featuring charming landscaping and a shed for additional storage, creating a serene retreat in the heart of the city. All of this is topped with new mini-split systems for efficient climate control inside, a new hot water heater for toasty warm showers, and a 150 amp electrical panel upgrade.  This stunning row house offers a rare combination of craftsmanship, comfort, updates, and charm, all within walking distance of all the attractions that downtown Frederick has to offer.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
