Maryland suburb with access to schools, recreation and conveniences
Situated 23 miles west of Baltimore, the highly residential community of Marriottsville prides itself on its mixed suburban and rural feel and convenient connections to urban scenes. The town provides access to main highways and outdoor spaces, blending residential living with urban amenities and recreation. Extensive parks and recreation options allow locals to take advantage of the natural setting. "Probably the biggest draw to Marriottsville is its proximity to parks and rural lots there that are not available in adjoining towns," says Realtor Gregory Kinnear with RE/MAX Advantage Realty. "Most people choose Marriottsville because it's more rural and there aren't many homes there because it's a lot of parkland." Marriottsville also draws families due to its high-performing schools in two counties. Additionally, the town’s convenience extends to its proximity to shops, groceries and retailers that fulfill necessities.

New developments include larger homes with generous layouts and colonial-influenced neo-traditional architectural styles.

Students attend top-rated public schools in two counties
Depending on zoning, students may attend school within Carroll County Public Schools or Howard County Public Schools. Both are high-performing districts, and Howard County Public Schools is ranked the best school district in Maryland. Within Howard County, students may begin their education at West Friendship Elementary School before advancing to Mount View Middle School. Both earn A grades. Marriotts Ridge High School maintains an A-plus score with top marks in college prep and academics. The high school offers advanced placement programs as well as a Gifted and Talented Education Program, where student interns are matched with professional mentors to explore self-selected areas of interest. MRHS students go on to attend top-rated universities such as Princeton, MIT and more. Parents may also opt to enroll their students in private, faith-based schools such as the top-rated Chapelgate Christian Academy, which serves kindergarten through twelfth grade and gets an A from Niche.
