The trend continues in favor of the Buyer, but Sellers with equity, who have nice properties in desirable areas are still able to NET a substantial return when they sell, due to the rapid increase in property values during the boom of 2002-2006.

ABOUT ELKRIDGE
Scroll down to see PHOTOS of Elkridge.
I am a proud resident of our growing city of approximately 23,000 residents. Located at the eastern part of Howard County, Elkridge also borders on Anne Arundel and Baltimore Counties.

Rich in history, Elkridge was established in 1734 as a settlement near the Patapsco River, where tobacco was loaded onto British trading ships for return to Europe.

The Furnace Inn opened in 1744 and still operates today as a first class restaurant with much of the original craftsmanship from the 1700 & 1800’s still in fine condition. Wine Tasting, Tea Sittings and other activities draw patrons from all over the region.

Recreation is available at Patapsco State Park, which has the historic Thomas Viaduct Bridge near the park entrance. The bridge was completed in 1835 for the nation’s first rail line, the B&O Railroad, and still carries rail traffic today!

Elkridge has two shopping centers with grocery stores as their main tenants; residents can stay close to home for much of their needs.

Mall shoppers are also only five minutes from the huge Arundel Mills Super Mall and Muvico Egyptian 24 Screen Theatre Complex in neighboring Hanover. A short fifteen minute drive to the west and you’re at the Mall in Columbia, which has two levels with many large stores, shops and a new theatre complex.

Ft. George Meade and Baltimore-Washington International Airport are both within a short 10 to 15 minute drive. Elkridge’s Dorsey Station MARC train offers convenient transport to Baltimore, DC and beyond.

For Golfers, the Timbers at Troy Hill course is one of the Mid-Atlantic’s top 100 courses. It is par 72 with and over 6,600 yards. Wonderful neighborhoods are nearby the course, with some of the properties being so close, you can walk to the course from your backyard! Marshalee Woods and Lyndwood Manor are two excellent Elkridge neighborhoods of single family homes that attract Golfers.

Other Elkridge neighborhoods popular with home buyers are Rockburn Commons, Quail Ridge and Elkridge Town Center, all have Condos and Townhouses.

New Colony Village is a gated community of affordable single family homes that are a good alternative to a townhouse.

Harwood Park is one of the Elkridge’s oldest communities and has a nice mix of older and new homes in a variety of styles and lot sizes.

Nottingham Village and Scarlet Oaks are additional communities of single family homes that range from mid to higher priced units.
