Maryland Real Estate

The areas of Maryland around Washington D.C. feature a mix of properties and architectural styles in a robust real estate market. The designs on display here include 19th-century colonial to mid-century modern. Contemporary homes are often built to mimic the old, using a range of new-traditional elements.

Those looking to enter the housing market for the first time, or for an opportunity to downsize their current assets, are likely to find a pleasing selection of minimal traditional and mid-century modern homes. The latter regularly appear in garrison-house configurations, with solid brick foundations and clapboard finished upper levels.

Moving up in the market will reveal cottages in the Cape Cod style. Exterior shutters, dormer windows, and quaint design are the defining features for these homes. Likewise, this section of the market also includes various condos, row houses, and even a few stately buildings in the region's signature Federalist tradition.

All throughout Maryland, the area's colonial past is on display. Tall, sober Federalist structures display elegant symmetry, roomy interiors, and neo-Classical details.

These homes also feature at the upper end of Maryland's real estate landscape. Along with the perennial frame-and-clapboard Colonial structures, luxury condos, and the largest mid-century modern homes, the breadth of what's on offer is sure to have something to suit your individual needs and tastes.
