Priestford Hills Homes for Sale & Neighborhood Guide

Welcome to Priestford Hills, a quiet single-family home community in Churchville, Maryland. The neighborhood is characterized by larger lots, mature trees, and a rural setting that provides considerably more space than many neighborhoods closer to Bel Air. I’ve put this page together to give home buyers an overview of what it’s like to live in Priestford Hills. At the end, you will find a list of current Priestford Hills homes for sale.

A Rural Churchville Location

Priestford Hills is located in the 21018 ZIP code in Churchville, Harford County. The neighborhood is primarily situated along College View Drive, which is sits off of Priestford Road. It sits next to the Priestford Estates neighborhood and across from the Rolling Green neighborhood. While the immediate surroundings feel rural, Priestford Hills is positioned within a reasonable drive of Bel Air, Aberdeen, and Havre de Grace, providing access to shopping, restaurants, employment centers, and other everyday services.

Homes in Priestford Hills

Priestford Hills is a single-family home neighborhood with homes primarily built during the 1970s and 1980s. Colonials are the most common architectural style, although you will also find ranchers and split-foyer homes throughout the community. Home sizes vary considerably, ranging from approximately 1,400 square feet to around 4,000 square feet. This variety means the neighborhood does not have the uniform appearance of a newer subdivision.

One of the defining features of Priestford Hills is the amount of land that comes with many of the homes. Most properties are situated on more than an acre, giving homeowners room for larger yards, outdoor living areas, gardens, detached structures, or simply additional privacy between neighboring homes.

There are no sidewalks in Priestford Hills, but the neighborhood also does not have through streets, which helps limit traffic primarily to residents and visitors. Mature trees and surrounding fields contribute to the private setting, and there is a small pond toward the rear of the community. Priestford Hills has a Walk Score of 1, so this is very much a car-dependent neighborhood rather than an area where residents can walk to stores, restaurants, or other services.

What Buyers Should Know

Because most Priestford Hills homes were built in the 1970s and 1980s, their condition can vary significantly. Some properties have been extensively renovated over the years, while others may still have original kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, mechanical systems, or finishes.

The Walk Score of 1 is another practical consideration. Priestford Hills is better suited to someone who values acreage, privacy, and a quieter setting than someone who wants to walk to shopping or restaurants. For the right buyer, that separation from commercial areas is part of the neighborhood’s appeal.
