Otter Creek Landing Homes for Sale and Community Highlights

I’m Leigh Kaminsky, your local real-estate guide here in Harford County, and I’d like to walk you through the neighborhood of Otter Creek Landing in Edgewood, MD. If you’re considering relocating to this part of the county, here’s a detailed look at what makes the community tick—what its history is, what you’ll find here, and what to keep in mind when browsing listings.

Community Overview

Otter Creek Landing is a residential subdivision in the 21040 ZIP code of Edgewood, Maryland. The homes in the neighborhood were largely built in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with typical floor plans ranging from around 1,500-2,800 sq ft, and 3-5 bedrooms. The style is mostly single-family detached, with modern construction and relatively modest lot sizes—enough yard for outdoor living but manageable maintenance. s According to one resident: “We love being just ten minutes to the beltway but tucked away enough that you feel like you’re in your own space.”

One of the strong draws here is that despite being close to downtown and key commuter routes, Otter Creek Landing still offers quiet street layouts, mature landscaping, and convenient access to green space. For example, the nearby Otter Point Creek marsh and estuary area gives the neighborhood a natural component—wooded edges, walking trails and wetlands visible from select streets.

Brief History & Location

Edgewood itself is an unincorporated community in Harford County, with roots going back to early colonial settlement and later being influenced by military and industrial uses. Historically the construction of the Edgewood Arsenal and the nearby US95 corridor shaped much of the area’s growth. Today, Otter Creek Landing sits in a more residential-oriented portion of Edgewood, with easy access to US40 and MD24. Development in this subdivision began in the late 1990s, and listings often reference year-built around 1997-2000. (Several home-value surveys show a median sale price in the area in the $300K range.)

What You’ll Love

Access & Commute: Because Otto Creek Landing is near major arteries like US40 and MD24, commuting to Baltimore, Bel Air or Aberdeen is realistic. Yet inside the subdivision you’ll find calmer streets, with mature landscaping and cul-de-sacs.
Green & Recreation: As noted, close by is the Otter Point Creek estuary system and nature preserve with trails and marsh views, offering opportunities for outdoor time without leaving the neighborhood. You’ll also find parks and recreation centers managed by Harford County nearby.
Home-types & Pricing: As a Realtor working here, I’ve seen that homes in Otter Creek Landing tend to hit a sweet spot—modern construction but not ultra-high end; manageable lot sizes; plenty of 3-4 bedroom layouts that appeal to a broad range of buyers.
Neighborhood Feel: Though close to major roads, the design of the subdivision keeps most traffic off the internal roads. Residents often mention how the area feels quiet once inside, while still being a few minutes to shopping, dining and services.
