Gwynn Oak

Located in Northwest Baltimore County, just outside the city lines, Gwynn Oak is a diverse and affordable area of charming single family homes that is being revitalized into one of the next great neighborhoods. Conveniently located within minutes of downtown Baltimore and Woodlawn, Gwynn Oak is a close knit community that, like nearby Howard Park, is loaded with historic architecture and classic appeal at first-time homebuyer prices.

Gwynn Oak is best known for the amusement park that made it a popular destination for Baltimoreans during the first half of the 20th century. In the 1970's the amusement park was de-installed and the land was allowed to revert to nature. Today, Gwynn Oak Park features mature wildlife and has been redeveloped as a neighborhood recreational and gathering place, complete with picnic areas, trails, and vistas of the striking Gwynn's Falls.

Other attractions in and around Gwynn Oak include the Forest Park Golf Course, a public course operated by the Baltimore Municipal Golf Corporation and considered one of the most challenging in the region.

With a median home value just under $200,000, Gwynn Oak is the perfect place to explore everything that Baltimore City has to offer, while enjoying the benefits of a Baltimore County address.
