Forest Glen, MD Homes For Sale

Lying north of the Capital Beltway and just a few miles from the Washington, DC border, the community dates back to 1687 and large tobacco plantations.

More About the Forest Glen, MD Real Estate Market

That plan didn’t last long. Although conveniently located to the B&O Railroad, the hotel simply couldn’t make a go of it and was turned into an elite finishing school for girls, known as the National Park Seminary. In its heyday, the campus included a chapel, riding stables, library and a Spanish mission-style structure known as “the Castle” for its grand turrets and arcades. Recently, the building was renovated as a commercial office building.

Located within the greater Silver Spring area, Forest Glen is one of the county’s oldest subdivisions and offers homes for sale that have been built over a lengthy period of time—from a historic district with old Queen Anne and Gothic architecture to traditional Colonials, Capes, Ramblers and newer custom homes. There’s also a nice selection of condos for sale—mostly townhouses—for very reasonable prices.

Homes and condos for sale in Forest Glen start off in the very low six figures and climb to about $800,000, with a few pricier exceptions here and there. Generally speaking, however, list prices reside in the solid mid-six figure territory—the median list price currently stands at around $490,000.

With beautiful parks, quiet tree-lined streets and locally owned restaurants like Pacci’s Trattoria (housed in a 1800s general store), this attractive little village has it all, including its own Metro station. And from quaint cottages to large custom-built homes for sale, the real estate inventory is also pretty choice.
