Neighborhood in Prince Frederick, Maryland

Just six miles from the beach and 34 miles from Washington, D.C., Sunderland is an established suburb in Calvert County, Maryland. This beachy town is home to locals who enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and welcoming neighborhood feel. Grab your swimsuit and join in the fun in Sunderland, Maryland.
Sunderland has a range of house styles, including modern colonial revivals, farmhouses and custom builds. Houses here are set back on gridded roads and do not guarantee sidewalks, but have residential speed limits in place, making it a great place to walk the dog or take an evening stroll. Houses vary in price from $400,000 to $600,000, and townhouses are priced starting at $350,000. “This is a very nice residential area,” says Mina Kim, general manager at the nearby SpringHill Suites by Marriott. “People take advantage of the mild weather and enjoy time at the beach year-round.”
Students living in Sunderland attend Calvert County Public School District schools. This district is rated A-minus by Niche and is also listed as the fifth-best school district in Maryland. A student in Sunderland may attend Sunderland Elementary School, rated B-plus by Niche, Northern Middle School, rated A-minus, and Huntingtown High School, rated A. Huntingtown High School is also listed as the best public high school in the county.
After school and work, locals enjoy a variety of outdoor activities. On sunny days, locals go to GoatToBeZen Yoga, where they enjoy outdoor yoga classes with the company of friendly goats. This local attraction brings visitors from all over Maryland to have fun with baby goats! There is also a public pool at Kings Landing Park in nearby Huntingtown, Maryland, and kayaking, swimming and fishing along the Patuxent River. During cold weather, locals head to Odyssey Axe Throw for indoor recreation and NinjaZone at Calvert Movement Academy to enjoy obstacle courses and martial arts classes. Locals head to Swann Farms in the fall for pick-your-own pumpkins and produce. “Since the Chesapeake Bay is close by, there’s a huge selection of places for fishing and boating available,” says Kim, “and locals travel through the inlets all around looking for shark teeth and beautiful shells. There’s a lot to do here, even when the weather isn’t warm enough for swimming.”
Once you’ve worked up an appetite at Sunderland’s park and recreation centers, head to Scorpion Brewing LLC, which opened in 2014 and features both outdoor and indoor seating and a wide variety of local craft beers. Scorpion Brewing is known for its relaxed atmosphere and for hosting after-work happy hours. For dinner, try Pinky’s Eatery, a locally owned restaurant serving southern specials like fried chicken, collard greens and candied yams. Home cooks will appreciate the Harris Teeter, Walmart and Giant Foods in nearby Dunkirk, making your weekly grocery run quick and easy. There’s also Dunkirk Market Place, a shopping mall with retail stores, dentists and veterinarians. “Being so close to the city, while still right on the beach, makes this area popular with young and old residents,” says Kim.
This quiet, semi-rural town is a great escape for people looking for access to nature while still being within commuting distance to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore.
