A small-town feel on North Point Peninsula
Located next to Sparrows Point, Edgemere sits on the North Point Peninsula overlooking the Chesapeake Bay and Hart Miller Island. Dating back to 1899, Edgemere used to neighbor the Sparrows Point Steel Plant. The area is now fulfillment centers and distribution warehouses for brands like The Home Depot, Under Armour and Amazon. But even with industrial neighbors, Edgemere residents continue to hold onto their waterfront and outdoorsy lifestyle. “Edgemere is really unique,” explains Fred Golding, a lifelong resident and Realtor with RE/MAX First Choice. “There’s a lot of waterfront homes, a couple of waterfront parks, boating, fishing, windsurfing, waterfront bars and restaurants, and at the same time, you still get that small town feel.” The average list price for houses here is about $370,000, which is higher than further inland neighborhoods like Saint Helena and Dundalk. Downtown Baltimore is about 16 miles east via Interstate 95, and students study within the Baltimore County Public School district, graded an overall B on Niche and the No. 4 best school district in the Baltimore area. “It’s like Mayberry. Everybody knows everyone, and nobody’s kids get away with anything. I love it,” Golding says. “I’m never leaving.”

North Point State Park fishing pier and marshland trails
Locals can take North Point Road or Millers Island Road up and down the peninsula to explore marshlands, fishing piers and even Fort Howard, which dates back to the War of 1812. Fort Howard Park has a fishing pier and several walking paths. Bill’s Marine Service lets visitors rent pontoon and fishing boats for a day on the bay. Millers Island Crab Pot Supply has plenty of fishing supplies and crab traps for avid anglers. Off Hinton Avenue, pocket beaches, such as Eighth Street Park, are tucked between private homes and provide public access to the water. Old Bay Shore Road cuts through North Point State Park and ends at the North Point Visitor’s Center and Trolley Pavilion picnic spot. Visitors can sit on the nearby beach, stroll along the North Point State Park Crystal Pier, or hike the Black Marsh Trail. Boaters without private docks can choose from one of many marinas around town, such as Markel’s Boat Yard, Old Bay Marina Inc. And Young’s Boat Yard.
