Community founded in 1832
One of the first historically African American communities to be established in the greater Baltimore area, the neighborhood of Pumphrey, Maryland, was founded in 1832. Taking its name from the nearby Baltimore & Annapolis Railroad’s Pumphrey Station, today, Pumphrey has evolved from a rural landscape to a populated residential community. Nestled between the neighborhoods of Brooklyn Park and Linthicum, Pumphrey also shares a border with the Patapsco River. "Pumphrey is one of those pocket neighborhoods in Baltimore that is small and very close knit," explains Frederick Golding Realtor with RE/MAX. "People tend to stay a really long time and homes get passed down from generation to generation."
Cozy cottages and newer Traditional homes
Comprised of detached single-family homes situated along Belle Grove Road, the neighborhood mostly has older 1950s-style homes. Choose from cozy cottages, split-levels, Cape Cods and ranch-styles, as well as a few newer Traditional builds. For alternative housing options, townhouse and mobile estate communities can also be found here. While the median housing cost is $330,000, prices fluctuate from around $250,000 to over $500,000 depending on home size, style and location. Homes with direct river-front views trend toward higher price points, and it's not uncommon to see residents fishing alongside the riverbanks.
Traditional builds come in all shapes and sizes in Pumphrey.
