Baltimore County encompasses a broad stretch of Maryland, touching both the Chesapeake Bay at its southern reaches and nestling against the border of New Jersey in the north. While named after the city of Baltimore, the area’s many charms aren’t restricted solely to those the city provides, with the county being home to verdant expanses in the north as well as a distinct history throughout.

New Homes in Baltimore County Near the Bay

As the county’s namesake, the city of Baltimore itself rests against the northern end of the Chesapeake Bay. Founded originally as a port city, many of the best new homes for sale in Baltimore County stretch along the waterfront and dockside. Much of Baltimore’s distinct character is marked by its connection to the sea; the city currently stands as the Mid-Atlantic’s largest seaport and is closer to the Midwestern markets than any other major regional seaport.

Founded in 1729, Baltimore stood as the second-largest port of entry for American migrants during the waves of European emigration that continued through the mid-19th century. Our new homes in Baltimore County are spread throughout areas of deep Colonial American history. Long prior to its rise as a port city, Baltimore was the center of key events throughout the American Revolution and served as the location of the Second Continental Congress.

Forests and Untouched Greenery

Far from its major city, the northward expanses of Baltimore County are filled with lush grassland and forest. While the southern half of the county is home to a greater density of human development, much of the northern parts of the county have remained undisturbed. Situated slightly below New Jersey’s Pine Barrens, the countryside throughout the north offers a beautiful, scenic retreat for those who choose to purchase our new, single-family homes in Baltimore County.

In addition, our new homes for sale in Baltimore County are near a wide array of historical and natural preserves.

Outside of the structural preserves, the Soldiers Delight Natural Environmental Area is an expanse of gorgeous natural formations and hiking trails.
