Timonium
Suburban Neighborhood in Lutherville Timonium, Maryland
Baltimore County 21093
A rural landscape of family homes and wooded enclaves
Residents of Timonium are accustomed to rural landscapes speckled with family homes and heavily wooded enclaves. “You’re outside of I-695, and you’re further from the city, so you get more of that suburban feel,” Richardson explains. The area is largely comprised of detached single-family builds taking the form of cottages, ranch-style homes and split levels. These properties range in price from $400,000 to $700,000, though midcentury fixer-uppers typically hover around $350,000. Homes situated near Loch Raven Reservoir tend to be more expensive, though their vast acreage rarely yields views of the water. Instead, dense woods offer a sense of privacy, with the water just a walk or bike ride away. And because Timonium is so expansive, there’s “more land to accommodate the need for private wells and septic systems.”Just a few miles from the scenic Loch Raven Reservoir
Loch Raven Reservoir Park is less than 5 miles from most residences, a location famed for having played the backdrop in the 1999 horror film “Blair Witch Project.” Visitors can embark on more than 50 miles of hiking trails, cast a rod or rent a boat to cruise along the largest body of water in the county. Golfers can check out Pine Ridge Golf Course overlooking the reservoir, complete with a clubhouse and driving range. About 13 miles north, the Gunpowder Falls State Park Sweet Air Area is one of the park’s largest enclaves. Hikers, bikers and equestrians often hit the area’s 18 miles of trails during the warmer months.Highly-rated public schools in Baltimore County
Local students are zoned for Baltimore County Public Schools, beginning at Timonium Elementary. This Blue-Ribbon school earns an A-minus on Niche, ranking as the third-best public elementary school in the county. Dumbarton Middle School earns the same Niche score, while Dulaney High School earns an A. Located in Cockeysville, Dulaney High offers the highest number of Advanced Placement courses in Baltimore County, an attractive option for local families.The Maryland State Fair
Timonium is well-known for hosting the Maryland State Fair, a 12-day festival averaging nearly half a million visitors each summer. Boasting a legacy of more than 140 years, the fair’s main draw is its incorporation of local 4-H and agricultural groups. Exhibits designed to promote agriculture invite guests to tour the barns and visit with livestock, learn to milk a cow, and even witness the births of piglets, calves, and chicks at the fair’s Birthing Center. Expansive arts and crafts displays showcase local talent in the arts of quilting, knitting, baking and photography. In addition, the Maryland Jockey Club hosts horse races alongside classic carnival rides and food vendors. Timonium’s residents are well aware of the traffic coinciding with the fair and tend to plan their daily routines accordingly.Commuting in the DMV
Commuters can rely on the Timonium North and Fairgrounds Station light rail stops to reach Timonium’s neighboring hubs, though most residents are car-dependent. MTA bus stops are spread across York Road for those looking to bypass the thoroughfare’s heavy traffic. Towson is about 3 miles south along this route, while the University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center is a 4-mile trip. Locals can take Interstate 83 to reach Baltimore, 14 miles south, or head 56 miles down the Baltimore-Washington Parkway to reach Washington, DC.Regional favorites along York Road
York Road is lined with restaurants and shops, a main thoroughfare connecting Timonium and Towson. Residents can head to Yorkridge Shopping Center for whole foods from MOM’s Organic Market or hit up THB—Towson Hot Bagels—for a bagel loaded with schmear and other toppings. Farther south, Towson Town Center attracts thousands from the Baltimore area for its nearly 200 retail outlets. Though traffic is typically congested near the center, a handful of restaurants are walkable from the mall. On the way to Cockeysville, locals can find a Sam’s Club, Target, Home Depot and Walmart. Closer to home, Michael’s Café Raw Bar & Grill is well-loved for its homemade crab cakes, made from a family recipe dating back four generations. Nautilus Diner offers a classic 1950s vibe serving large portions of classic American comfort food.
