About This Property
Welcome to Arden House, a timeless masterpiece designed in 1928 by
Baltimore architect, William F. Stone, Jr. This stunning residence,
built by Frederick May Gittings and Helen Railton Gittings,
epitomizes the beauty of Tudor Revival architecture. With its
stucco and stone exteriors adorned with half-timbering, numerous
Tudor arches, and leaded glass elements, this home stands as a
testament to the impeccable craftsmanship and design of a bygone
era. This residence, featured as The 33rd Symphony Decorators' Show
House in 2009, holds a unique place in Baltimore's architectural
legacy. Meticulously restored and updated, this home seamlessly
blends modern comforts with its original charm, creating a perfect
harmony of old-world elegance and contemporary living. With over
6,000 square feet of living space, Arden House provides ample room
for both grand gatherings and intimate moments. Warm and inviting,
with a light and airy color palette and beautiful hardwood floors
throughout, history and modern elements coalesce to create a

with French door access to a private office, offers the perfect
space to receive guests, while the Family Room adjacent to the
Living Room has a wall of custom Andersen architectural series
replacement windows that bathes the room with natural light. The
Dining Room, with original built-ins, is large enough for your next
