Embedded Files
Ten Hills is a neighborhood full of natural beauty. It offers a suburban feel similar to that of juxtaposed Baltimore County with mature trees beautifying the yards of early 1900s single-family homes fixed along winding, hilly streets. Neighbors are proud to be part of this historic community and work hard to preserve it. A CHAP neighborhood, which stands for The Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation. That means residents receive tax credits for updating their homes while maintaining the exterior's architectural integrity. With charming houses of diverse architectural styles, some dating back to 1910. These five- and six-bedroom estates are placed on spacious half-acre lots with vast greenery. Colonial Revivals are a common build in Ten Hills, along with English Tudors and American Foursquares.
