Severn Maryland is a suburban community of about 36,000 residents located in Anne Arundel county Maryland. Severn is located just outside of the entrance to Fort Meade which makes it a popular housing community for Fort Meade military and government employees. In addition, Severn is nestled right in the middle of several major commuting routes that will take you to Baltimore or Washington DC in about 30 minutes. Severn offers a variety of parks and recreational facilities and is just minutes to the Odenton MARC station.

The recently built Arundel Mills mall borders the western edge of Severn and offers the area's best shopping and dining facilities and a fabulous cineplex movie theater.

Housing choices within the community include townhomes and single family homes only. There are currently no traditional conduminums in Severn which helps it retain it's all American neighborhood feel. The majority of housing in Severn is single family homes. The city is made up of dozens of communities.  Some of the most popular with our customers have been:

The Quail Run subdivision which is a community of over 550 homes including back-to-back townhomes priced at about $275,000, traditional townhomes priced right around $300,000, luxury garage townhomes priced in the $340,000 range and single family homes priced at $500,000+. The subdivision was built in the early 1990's to keep pace with the growing demand for affordable housing in Anne Arundel County. The single family homes within the neighborhood are upscale, larger homes with basements and garages. The community is located just 5minutes to Fort Meade and Route 32 at 175 interchange. Amenities include open areas, tot lots and a dog park.

The Carriage Pines subdivision is a sister community to Quail Run and is considered by many to be part of Quail Run. The community is comprised of 180 townhomes with most being built after 2000. Prices range from the high $290,000 range to $350,000.

The Provinces subdivision which is divided into two sections, commonly referred to as the Old Provinces and the New Provinces.

The old Provinces is made up of single family homes built between the early 1970's and the early 1980's. Home styles include Colonial, Ranch (one level) and split foyer homes and prices range from the low $300,000 to the low $400,000 range. This community is directly outside the gates to Fort Meade across 175 from the Rockenbach entrance to the base.

The newer section of the Provinces was all built post 1990. It is also made up entirely of single family homes mostly in the Colonial style. These larger homes offer basements and many have two car garages. Prices range from the low $400,000 to $500,000. The newer section of The Provinces adjoins Quail Run.

The Graham Farm subdivsion is a community of just under 90 single family homes on just 4 streets. This neighborhood is tucked away right off Severn Road and adjoins the Severn Woods community. The homes in this neighborhood vary in style from adorable cape cods (that are much more spacious than they appear), to larger colonial homes with and without garages. Prices range from about $340,000 - $400,000. This is a community where you do not see many homes for sale because of it's small size and low turnover.

The Graham Farm South subdivision is a small add-on community to Graham Farm. These large single family homes feature basements and two car garages and are priced the $500,000 - $600,000 price range.

The Severn Woods subdivsion is a community of just 115 single family homes, most with garages in the colonial, split level and split foyer style. The subdivision is made up of just 4 streets and is about a 5 minute commute to Fort Meade and the Route 32 at 175 interchange. The average home price in this community ranges from about $370,000 for a two level home to about $430,000 for a three level home with garage. You won't find a big selection of home to choose from as only 5 - 10 houses per year sell in this community. There are many more subdivisions in the area, too many to list here.
