History & Architecture
Nestled just half a mile behind Salisbury University, Druid Hill is a mature, mid‑20th‑century neighborhood whose housing stock reflects post‑war American optimism. Many of the homes—built in the early 1950s and ’60s—are charming mid‑century ranches, Cape Cods, and Colonial-style single‑family residences. For instance, many properties, built in the mid-1950’s, highlights classic hardwood floors, a sunroom, and a cozy fireplace. A few duplexes and light condominium conversions add subtle density, but large lot sizes—around 8,100 sq ft—create a sense of privacy and openness.
