About the Builder and Your Guide

Keelty is a family builder with roots going back to 1904.

Keelty

Keelty’s Maryland roots begin in 1904, when Irish stonemason James Keelty built homes on Baltimore’s Calvert Street. Today, the fourth-generation, family-owned and operated company brings more than 120 years of building experience to homes like the Villas at Woodbrook.

Rodgers Forge began in 1932. Later communities—including Thornleigh, Village Green, Seminary Ridge, Mays Chapel Village, Doncaster Village and Mays Chapel North—reflect a family tradition carried across generations of Maryland neighborhoods.

In 1904, Irish stonemason James Keelty began building homes in Baltimore. More than 120 years later, Keelty remains a fourth-generation, family-owned and operated builder, carrying that tradition of craftsmanship forward.

From Rodgers Forge, begun in 1932, to familiar communities such as Thornleigh, Seminary Ridge and Mays Chapel Village, the family’s history is part of Maryland’s neighborhoods.
