Welcome to Hampstead, MD

The small town of Hampstead is located 25 miles north of Baltimore and is divided between Carroll and Baltimore Counties. Its 2.7 square miles are home to just under 5,100 Hampstead real estate owners. This gives the community a quiet, small-town feel that makes Hampstead real estate particularly appealing to families. Hampstead’s youths are served by two elementary schools, two middle schools, and the North Carroll High School.

Like several other Baltimore-area communities, Hampstead is experiencing a renaissance, thanks to its Main Street Revitalization Plan. This plan includes the conversion of an old bank building into a new police station and the restoration of the town’s 1912 train station. As a result, home values are expected to increase, making Hampstead real estate even more desirable.
