Hermitage - An Upscale Community Near Crofton

Hermitage Subdivision, Gambrills, MD

As you leave Crofton and head east on Route 450 towards Annapolis, you'll spot this entrance into the community of Hermitage - a community of 62 custom-built homes on spacious lots.

You can see from these photos that Hermitage is not a "one size fits all" community... in fact you'll find homes and settings for every taste, from colonials to ranchers, tudors to contemporary, and wooded to open space.  Yet it's not a hodge-podge, either, because the homes are far apart on winding and sloping roads that seamlessly take you past one home to the next.

There are no homes on the market now in Hermitage and no recent sales to report - in fact, the last sale/settlement in the community was January 2008 ($810,000). There is one home under contract, however, and it sold in just seven days.   This is a stable community where people buy a home with the intention of staying!  (Homes in the photos are not for sale.)

The location of Hermitage is ideal for anyone commuting to D.C. or Baltimore, since it's easily accessible to Route 50 (to D.C.) or Route 3 and I-97 (to Baltimore), depending on which way you turn at nearby Davidsonville Road (Rt. 424).  It's a neighborhood that homebuyers select for that convenience, as well as its proximity to Annapolis and the Chesapeake Bay.  The U.S. Naval Academy, Fort Meade, and Andrews Air Force Base are all within 30 minutes, as well.

Check out the homes in Hermitage and other upscale communities near Crofton.  This is a GREAT time for current residents to move up without leaving the area and for relocating homebuyers to capitalize on a market that may make "upscale" more affordable for you than it would have been a few years ago.

Hermitage sounds like an excellent neighborhood Margaret! I guess people must really like living there as no one seems to move:)

Bill, now you know why I rarely handle upscale properties in this area.  There are plenty of them, but they don't change hands very often.

Roy, it is one of several similar communities, and the oldest of them.
