A nautical community southeast of Baltimore
Located on the Chesapeake Bay in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, Lake Shore is a nautical community, offering pocket beaches, marinas, deep water docks, and piers. “I think what draws people to the area is the love of the water and the bay. You feel secluded down there because it is a peninsula - there's one way in and one way out - so it has that sense of community,” says Michelle Blanchard, a Realtor with Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland who has been selling in Anne Arundel County for 21 years. Michelle has been living, working and playing in the Central Maryland area all her life. “There are so many wonderful things to say about Lake Shore,” Blanchard says. “You're tucked away, you're surrounded by water everywhere and you still have easy access to all the metropolitan areas.” Though most waterfront homes sell for at least $1 million, the average price is about $650,000 for Lake Shore dwellings, which is higher than nearby neighborhoods like Pasadena and Green Haven. Nearby Lake Shore Plaza gives residents a place to shop and dine, though there are some locally owned restaurants in town. Students attend schools within the Anne Arundel County Public School district, graded an overall B on Niche, which is the No. 3 best school district in the Baltimore area, and the No. 8 best school district in Maryland for athletes. Lake Shore has an overall CAP Index crime score of 2 out of 10, which is lower than the national average of 4.
When you live in Lake Shore you'll have a place to dock your sailboat.

Downs Park and Compass Pointe Golf Courses
Because Lake Shore is right on the bay, there is no shortage of things to do out on the water. At Downs Park, locals can bring out their kayaks, boats or fishing poles and spend a day on the Chesapeake Bay or at the park’s public pier. “Downs Park is amazing. You can walk there from a lot of these communities,” Blanchard says. “It's got a pier, nature trails, walking paths and amazing views of the water.” The park also has an amphitheater, gardens and an aviary. There is even a dog park open seven days a week. Though Downs Park has an entry fee of about $6, which helps maintain the area, residents can purchase an annual park pass for $30. Compass Pointe Golf Courses has two public 18-hole championship courses, as well as events and benefits for members. Lakeshore Athletic Complex features several baseball fields, basketball courts, equestrian trails and a playground for locals to enjoy together.

Waterfront homes and Compass Pointe golf course estates
Residences in Lake Shore benefit from waterfront views and quiet cul-de-sacs with accessible tributaries from the Magothy River and Bodkin Creek. That means many homes here have their own docks and direct water access, though some may sit within possible flood zones. “In Pasadena, we have about 2,200 homes on the waterfront, which exceeds any other zip code in the county. It's a very recreational town, people enjoy their boats, kayaks and fishing or just cruising out on the bay,” Blanchard says. Contemporary waterfront homes with large bay windows, private docks and decks overlooking the river are rarely priced below $900,000, and some can cost well over $2 million. Inland houses on spacious lots vary from tall Colonial-inspired family homes to four-bedroom ranch-style and split-level residences. These can range in price from $450,000 to over $700,000, and often are within walking distance of a park, pond or creek. Large estates on the championship Compass Pointe golf course often cost over $1 million, with long driveways, private pools and a wall of mature trees for privacy.
The waterfront homes in Lake Shore also have beautiful yards.

Local favorites in town and nearby Lake Shore Plaza
Next to the Bodkin Yacht Club on Main Creek is The Rumor Reel, a waterfront tavern on Poplar Ridge Road, featuring Sunday brunch, fresh seafood and live music nights. “The Reel draws locals and people from the outside of the area as well, but The Rumor Meal is very much a local hangout,” Blanchard says. “If you want to go out for the big game or listen to live music, you go there. If you've lived in the area a long time, you'll always run into something you know.” Angel’s Food Market is a locally owned grocery store offering weekly specials, prepared meals-to-go and an assortment of alcohol and bakery items. On Mountain Road, locals can enjoy comfort bar food and beer at The Irish Pub Next Door or enjoy Mexican cuisine at The Picantillo Restaurant. For longer grocery trips, Lake Shore Plaza has a Safeway grocery store, ACE Hardware and a few familiar chain restaurants like Five Guys and Dunkin’.
The Rumor Reel is best known for their amazing seafood.

Anne Arundel County Public Schools
Depending on their address, students may attend kindergarten through fifth grade at one of a few elementary schools. Jacobsville Elementary School, graded a B-minus on Niche, may serve those living west of the golf course. Lake Shore Elementary can serve those in the middle of town, while a large majority of students living east of Lake Shore Elementary may attend Bodkin Elementary School. Both schools are graded a B. All students can then head to Chesapeake Bay Middle School and then Chesapeake High School, both graded a B. Chesapeake High School is known for its athletic programs and after-school activities, such as a book club, art club and Spanish Honor Society. The Dun-Pikin Farm sits between both campuses and is a family-operated horse boarding and lesson barn where anyone can learn to ride.

Commutes to Baltimore and Washington D.C.

They can also take that road 15 miles west of town to reach the Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. The University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center is 8 miles west. For those who commute to Washington D.C., it’s about 42 miles southwest via the Baltimore-Washington Parkway, taking most commuters an hour or so to reach the city.
