Saint Leonard offers quaint rural living on Maryland's Western Shore
Saint Leonard is fairly rural neighborhood sandwiched between the Patuxent River and the Chesapeake Bay, about 50 miles away from Washington, D.C. It’s an attractive area for homebuyers looking for lower prices on waterfront property or in a waterfront community in exchange for living in more of a remote area, according to Delaney Burgess, a Realtor with The Gail Nyman Group of RE/MAX United Real Estate who has sold numerous homes in the neighborhood. “Saint Leonard is very secluded, but it’s really just a twenty-minute drive to get to whatever you need,” Burgess says. “The price is a little bit better in that zip code because it is a little more rural.”
Subdivisions with larger modern homes are spread through St Leonard.

Suburban subdivisions, waterfront homes and secluded farmhouses
Most houses in the neighborhood are single-family homes, some in close-knit subdivisions and others spread out and set back on rural roads and farmland. Prices range from the mid-$200,000s to the mid-$800,000s depending on features like the amount of land, how new or updated the home is and whether it’s on the water. For house hunters looking for a water lifestyle without the waterfront price tag, water communities like Long Beach offer private beaches and other amenities.
Most homes have larger yards, even in subdivisions of St Leonard.
Farmland in St Leonard remains plentiful and is a major industry in Southern Maryland.

Trails, parks and cliffs along the Chesapeake Bay Watershed
Living in Saint Leonard means getting outside and enjoying the day. Multiple parks in the area aid in the endeavor; on the Patuxent River side of the peninsula, Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum offers more than 500 scenic acres where you can explore the trails, launch a kayak or canoe, attend an event or learn about the area’s history. Flag Ponds Nature Park is closer to folks on the Chesapeake Bay side of the peninsula. This park is great for swimming and picnicking at the public beach. Residents can also head about 7 miles south down Solomons Island Road to Calvert Cliffs State Park to hike the Calvert Cliffs or fossil-hunt along the Chesapeake Bay.
On cold or rainy days, residents can head north on Solomons Island Road about 7 miles to Prince Frederick, where there’s a plethora of things to do inside like catch a movie at Flagship Cinemas, work up a sweat at Planet Fitness or take the little ones to Lets Play, an interactive indoor playground. Beyond that, according to Burgess, many residents are willing to travel to other neighborhoods and counties for activities, like Solomons, a large waterfront community with lots of boating, and St. Mary’s County, which tends to have more community events. For a bigger day out, Burgess says, sometimes residents will even head to Washington, D.C., and Annapolis.
