Colesville, MD Homes For Sale

Colesville, Maryland is in a word, idyllic. It’s a place where green meadows roll and equestrian riding is a big thing. It’s about after-school soccer, community events, and luxurious homes for sale. And yet, it is also a place where real estate buyers can get solid value for their money—the price per-square-foot is a lot less than what you’d pay in Washington, DC, for instance.  

This is one of the oldest communities in the area, dating back to the 1600s and the original Lords Baltimore—the grand patriarchs of the Calvert family. The land was purchased from the Calverts in 1714 and subsequently known for a lengthy period as “Coals-Ville”. In 1855, President Franklin Pierce purchased a large farm estate here. The oldest surviving home from the colonial era is a palatial mansion built in 1790. For more information about Colesville, MD homes for sale, call us today!
