Roberts Crossing in Bel Air, MD — New Home Community & Market Guide
Welcome to Roberts Crossing — a newly developing single-family home community in Bel Air, Maryland, offering modern design, thoughtful amenities, and strategic location. I’m Leigh Kaminsky, REALTOR® at BelAirRealtor.com, and I’m pleased to walk you through what makes Roberts Crossing an exciting opportunity in Harford County real estate. This page gives you neighborhood insight, market expectations, local context, and what to watch for as you explore homes here.
Community Snapshot & Home Design 
Roberts Crossing is being built by Richmond American Homes, located just about four miles east of historic downtown Bel Air. The floor plans include 4 to 6 bedrooms, and new homes are priced starting in the high $700,000s. Many of the current listings show homes of 3,200 to 4,080 square feet with 3 to 4+ baths. A few examples: 1613 Shady Tree Ct (5 beds, 3,467 sq ft), 1618 Shady Tree Ct (5 beds, 3,770 sq ft), and 1612 Shady Tree Ct (5 beds, 4,080 sq ft). (These are typical homes currently available in the community.)
Some of the offered floor plans include the “Coronado” model (~3,760 sq ft, 4 beds, 3.5 baths) and the “Hemingway” model (~3,600 sq ft, 4 beds, 2.5 baths). These designs emphasize open layouts, generous kitchens, flexible living spaces, and upscale finishes. The community offers modern infrastructure, new construction warranties, and appealing curb appeal to complement the contemporary interiors.
Because Roberts Crossing is in development, there’s still opportunity to select certain options or upgrades depending on your timing. It also means community infrastructure, landscaping, and amenities are in early phases — so buyers should review what’s completed and what’s planned.
Location & Lifestyle Amenities
Roberts Crossing benefits from a strategic Bel Air location. You’re close enough to downtown Bel Air to enjoy local shops, dining, and community events, but far enough to enjoy a quieter residential feel. The community is positioned to allow easy access via local roads to Bel Air’s retail corridors, medical services, and essential amenities.
The proximity to I-95 and regional routes makes commuting feasible to larger employment centers. Trulia notes that this community is very close to regional highways, improving connectivity to Baltimore, Washington D.C., and major employment hubs. Also, residents will benefit from nearby green space, parks, trails, and the broader Bel Air park system.
History & Community Context
While Roberts Crossing is new, it’s part of the long evolution of Bel Air’s suburban expansion. Bel Air itself has historic roots dating to the early 19th century. As the area grew, residential developments steadily spread outward from the historic downtown core into more open land. Roberts Crossing is another chapter in that growth — blending modern homebuilding techniques with the infrastructure and conveniences that mature communities offer.
The community reflects current trends in new construction — open floor plans, energy-efficient design, and quality finishes — built against the backdrop of Harford County’s stable real estate environment. It’s a chance to have a home that’s fresh and up-to-date rather than retrofitting older houses.
Schools & Educational Options
Because Roberts Crossing is new, school assignments depend on the address. According to builder-provided data, homes in Roberts Crossing are proposed to be assigned to Fountain Green Elementary, Southampton Middle School, and C. Milton Wright High School. However, zoning and boundary designations may shift.
