Homes for sale in Cedarcroft are just over the Baltimore County Line (Less than 1/2mile South of Towson). A distinctive historic (listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003) residential neighborhood of about 125 homes located in Northern Baltimore City, Cedarcroft had its beginnings when The Cedarcroft Land Company built about 30 homes on land purchased by prominent developer Philip E. Lamb in 1885.  His estate, which still stands today, is located at 6204 Sycamore Road.

Today the Cedarcroft Land Company is gone, but the Cedarcroft Maintenance Corporation and Cedarcroft Improvement Association have taken over the responsibility of maintaining architectural and community standards as well as sponsoring social activities including October block parties, Halloween parades, and Christmas decoration contests.  And not unlike many of Baltimore’s other more established neighborhoods, homes for sale in Cedarcroft offer’s its residents diverse architectural styles including Dutch Colonial Revival, Federal Revival, Tudor Revival, Georgian Revival, Cape Cod Revival, Bungalow, and Italianate, all nestled among mature tree-lined streets.
