Cardinals Choice Homes for Sale and Real Estate Guide
Welcome to Cardinals Choice in Jarrettsville, MD . One of the things that makes this neighborhood stand out is the combination of new single family homes on large flat lots surrounded by fields and trees. I became familiar with Cardinals Choice after helping a client purchase a home here and came away impressed with both the homes and the setting. I put this page together to help buyers get a better feel for what it is like to live in the neighborhood, what the homes are like, and what you can expect from the area.

Quiet Rural Location 
Cardinals Choice is located in Jarrettsville, Maryland in zip code 21084 in Harford County. The neighborhood sits along Jarrettsville Road close to the intersection of Federal Hill Road, where J’Ville Grill is located.
About the Neighborhood and Homes
Cardinals Choice is a small single family home community that was built during the 2020s by Greenspring Homes. These are the same builders who built The Preserve of Forest Hill Farms community. There are only 12 homes in the neighborhood, which helps create a more private and close knit feel.
The homes here feature a modern farmhouse style design. Farmhouse style homes typically combine classic country inspired architecture with updated interior finishes and modern layouts. You will often see features such as covered front porches, clean exterior lines, large windows, wider siding, simple architectural details, and warm inviting interiors.
The homes in Cardinals Choice range from approximately 2,500 square feet to over 4,000 square feet. One thing I personally like about the floor plans is that they feel functional and efficient. The layouts are open and spacious without having areas that feel unnecessary or wasted. Many homes include large kitchens that open into family rooms and dining spaces, which works well for both everyday living and entertaining.
Another feature buyers tend to appreciate is the amount of natural light. The homes have lots of windows, which helps create bright and comfortable living spaces throughout the day. The finishes are also more upscale than what buyers sometimes expect in newer construction communities, with quality cabinetry, attractive trim work, modern kitchens, and thoughtfully designed interiors.
The lots are another major selling point. Most homes sit on approximately one acre of flat land, which gives homeowners usable outdoor space for recreation, gardening, or simply enjoying privacy. The homes located toward the back of the neighborhood are even larger and sit on roughly two acre lots. Because the community is surrounded by fields and wooded areas, many homes enjoy scenic views and a sense of separation from nearby development.
There is no HOA in Cardinals Choice, which is appealing to many buyers who prefer fewer restrictions and no monthly HOA fees. The neighborhood does include shared driveways in some sections, so that is something buyers should understand and review when considering a property here.
