Lutherville is a family-friendly suburb north of Baltimore
Winding subdivisions with spacious homes and wooded yards, businesses along York Road and spacious parks like Loch Raven Reservoir make Lutherville a community with a little bit of everything. Just 13 miles north of downtown Baltimore, this comfortable suburb is convenient for commuters and families. “Lutherville is one of those communities that has so much for so many,” says Dara Lewis, Realtor at The Pinnacle Real Estate Company and Lutherville resident. “I’ve seen that people who grew up here are now coming back to the area to purchase homes. Whether because of the swim club, because of the trails, or because of the proximity to the interstate to head south into the city.” Unified under a single ZIP code, Lutherville and neighboring Timonium are sometimes considered a single community. “It depends on who you ask,” Lewis says. Both enjoy similar amenities and distance to the city.

Historic and newer homes attract buyers to the community
Lutherville’s winding subdivisions tend to have tidy landscaping and wide, flat roads lined with sidewalks. Styles vary from well-preserved historic properties to spacious new houses. Homebuyers can typically expect to pay between $300,000 and $650,000 for Cape Cods, ranch-styles, bi-levels and split levels built in the latter half of the 20th century. Some spacious contemporary properties can sell for higher, ranging from about $700,000 to over $2 million. Lutherville’s Historic District has homes built in the 1800s, including Victorian and traditional styles. These come up for sale infrequently but have historically gone for between $700,000 and $1 million. “Houses usually don’t stay on the market for very long in this area if it’s priced accordingly. Most sell in under a month,” Lewis says.
