A beachfront community adjacent to Stoney Creek

Marketed in the 1920s as a summer retreat for Baltimoreans, Green Haven has grown into the single largest neighborhood in Pasadena. Sitting adjacent to Stoney Creek—a large tributary of the Chesapeake Bay—this neighborhood is best known for its private beach, boat launch and 110-foot Green Haven Wharf. The area also offers quick access to local schools throughout the neighborhood as well as access to shopping and dining along Mountain Road. This road also leads to interstates and highways allowing for commuters to reach downtown Baltimore. The neighborhood has come a long way from being “an older beachfront community that used to just be old cottages with no heating or insulation,” says Bonnie Fleishman, a resident of Pasadena and associate broker with Douglas Realty for over 4 years. The area has grown and improved a lot with new housing and infrastructure “while still being affordable,” Fleishman says.

From green fields to Stoney Creek beaches

Green Haven residents have plenty of options for enjoying the outdoors, such as Green Haven Wharf, the namesake of the area, which is a popular spot for swimming, fishing and kayaking. Anne Arundel County Park offers a cozy and serene green space with a playground and picnic areas. Highpoint Park caters more to organized sports, with two basketball courts and “plenty of open space for a game of kickball or baseball by the elementary school,” Fleishman says.

Seafood delights in Pasadena

Dining options, especially seafood options, are extensive in the Green Haven area. Nearby Gourmet Pizza and Subs has been around for over a decade and “makes really good homemade shrimp salad,” Fleishman says.

Access to Maryland via Mountain Road

The Green Haven area is a more suburban area, so cars are the main source of transportation, although residents do walk around for exercise and recreation purposes. For commuting and trips, residents have quick access to Maryland State Route 100 and Governor Ritchie Highway via Mountain Road, meaning trips to Annapolis or Baltimore are often a quick feat. For trips not reachable by boat, the Baltimore/Washington International Airport is 13 miles to the west. For medical care, many residents choose to head to Baltimore’s University of Maryland Medical Center, 18 miles away.

The bus in Green Haven is a great and easy way of transportation.
