Sparks Glencoe, MD Real Estate

 

Within 20 minutes of Baltimore city via I-83 and located just north of Hunt Valley in scenic Northern Baltimore County, Sparks Glencoe is known among residents simply as Sparks. With the relocation of several large corporate campuses to Sparks, including Fila and PHH, the area is currently experiencing a population boom taking it from a largely rural farming area to a small countryside suburb.

Homes in Sparks range from large historic country estates with rolling horse pastures, to brick condominiums and colonial style town homes. A number of smaller ranch houses and cape cods can also be found on spacious wooded lots, most of which come with an acre or more of land. But, as Sparks continues to grow, a number of luxury home builders have also taken notice, and several new communities with brick and stone façade constructions boasting four or five bedrooms are now available. With an average value of $427,000, homes in Sparks come at a premium, but include spacious lots, great neighbors, and the unbeatable combination of suburban convenience and quiet country living.

Sparks' closest neighbor, Hunt Valley, serves as the main corporate and social hub for Northern Baltimore County and is home to the corporate campuses of Procter & Gamble, McCormick, and Becton Dickinson & Company. In addition, residents from around the county flock to the Hunt Valley Town Center, which features dozens of popular shops, gourmet grocers, movie theatres, and much more.

For outdoor enthusiasts, The NCR Trail, Hunt Valley Golf Club, Oregon Ridge Nature Center, and Shawan Downs are great ways for residents to bask in the great outdoors in their own neighborhood. Oregon Ridge, which is open to the public year round, features hiking trails, wildlife exhibits, and educational programs, in addition to seasonal concerts and man made beaches.

Those who love to bike will enjoy the 20 mile NCR trail which starts in Hunt Valley and stretches all the way to York, Pennsylvania. For avid golfers, the Hunt Valley Golf Club is a relaxing place to socialize and improve one's game, while Shawan Downs in Worthington Valley offers racing enthusiasts a chance to see their favorite thoroughbreds up close.

As part of the Baltimore County Public School district, residents enjoy the privilege of attending some of the state's strongest schools. Public schools in Sparks include the newly constructed Sparks Elementary, Hereford Middle, and Hereford High School.
