Three Sprawling Rural Properties in Maryland

Produced in collaboration with Aimee C. O’Neill of O’Neill Enterprises Realty 

Harford County, Maryland, offers a wide range of properties within reach of major employment centers, transportation routes, and regional amenities. Three current listings showcase that range, from preserved farmland in Churchville to residences with equestrian features, pools, and historic architectural details.

3361 Aldino Road, Churchville, MD 21028

$1,680,000

Located at the corner of Aldino Road and Mahan Road in Churchville, 3361 Aldino Road offers 168 acres across three separate tax parcels. The property includes approximately 95 acres of tillable land, with level terrain suited for crop production and long-term agricultural use.

One 23-acre parcel includes two Agricultural Development Rights and is not subject to conservation easement restrictions, giving the property added flexibility. The remaining two parcels total approximately 145 acres and are subject to a Harford County Agricultural Land Preservation Deed of Easement, which preserves their agricultural use and limits residential homesites on those portions.

Current agricultural activity continues through December 2026, with approximately eight acres of sod crop and 70 acres of field crop remaining under the seller’s harvest rights. A five-year lease with Legends of the Fog also provides $1,500 in annual income from six acres of pasture.

The property must be purchased as a complete unit. Listed at $1,680,000, it offers a rare amount of acreage for buyers focused on farming, land preservation, or a long-term agricultural investment in Harford County.

$1,350,000

Located on 14-plus acres in Aberdeen, 760 Gilbert Road is a Victorian-style property with updated living spaces and outdoor amenities. It offers room for animals, with convenient access to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Interstate 95, and Route 22.

Inside, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors laid in a herringbone pattern bring warmth to the main living areas. The living room is anchored by a wood stove with a decorative tile backsplash, and the primary suite includes a bow window, walk-in closet, soaking jetted tub, and separate corner shower. A finished lower level adds a family room and recreation area with luxury vinyl plank flooring and a pellet stove.

Outside, an in-ground swimming pool, updated with a new liner and filter in 2019, creates a dedicated space for summer recreation. A 36-by-36-foot horse barn and approximately 12 acres of fenced pasture support equestrian use, livestock, or small-scale agricultural plans.

Covered front and side porches wrap around the home, with access to the breakfast nook and living room. A rear wooden deck and patio with built-in benches add more outdoor gathering space.

Recent updates include a roof replacement in 2019, new gutters in 2020, and an HVAC system installed in 2018. Listed at $1,350,000, the property offers acreage, equestrian infrastructure, and country living near key Harford County routes.
