     Re:  Form S-8 Registration Statement

Dear Sirs:

     We have acted as counsel for Saul Centers, Inc., a Maryland corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with a Registration Statement on Form S-8 which
is being filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Registration Statement"). The Registration Statement registers 50,000 shares of
the common stock of the Company, par value $ 0.01 per share (the "Shares"),
issuable pursuant to the Saul Centers, Inc. Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan
For Directors (as amended March 18, 1999) (the "Plan").

     In such capacity, we have reviewed the charter and by-laws of the Company,
the Registration Statement, the Plan and the corporate action taken by the
Company that provides for the issuance of the Shares.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares issuable
pursuant to the Plan have been duly and validly authorized and, upon issuance
and delivery thereof as contemplated in the Registration Statement and the Plan,
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the reference to our firm and to our opinion in the Prospectus
which is a part of the Registration Statement.

     We are, in this opinion, opining only on the law of the State of Maryland
and the federal law of the United States.

                              Very truly yours,
                              /s/ Shaw Pittman

be earned on or after the date of the election.  For a new Director, the
election to defer Director's Fees earned during his or her initial calendar year
of service shall be made within thirty days following the Director's election or
appointment.  Any election to defer shall continue in effect unless modified or
revoked in accordance with section 3.3.

     (b) When a Director elects to defer Director's Fees under section 3.1(a),
the Director shall also elect whether amounts deferred should be credited to his
or her Cash Deferred Fee Account, to his or her Stock Deferred Fee Account, or
both, in percentages authorized in the Director's Deferred Fee Agreement.

  3.2    CREDITING TO DEFERRED FEE ACCOUNTS. (a) When a Director elects under
section 3.1(b) to have Director's Fees credited to his or her Cash Deferred Fee
Account, the Company shall credit the Director's Cash Deferred Fee Account with
the amount of such Director's Fees as of the day such Directors Fees would have
been paid to the Director if they had not been deferred under the Plan.

     (b) When a Director elects under section 3.1(b) to have Director's Fees
credited to his or her Stock Deferred Fee Account, the Company shall credit the
Director's Stock Deferred Fee Account with a number of Shares as of the day such
Director's Fees would have been paid to the Director were they not deferred
under the Plan.  The number of Shares credited to the Stock

Deferred Fee Account shall be the quotient of (1) the amount of Director's Fees
to be credited to the Stock Deferred Fee Account divided by (2) the Fair Market
Value of the Company's common stock on such date.

  3.3    MODIFICATION OR REVOCATION OF DEFERRAL.  A Director may, on a

  4.1    INTEREST.  Interest shall be credited to each Director's Cash Deferred
Fee Account, as of the end of each calendar quarter, at an annual rate
determined pursuant to section 4.2.  Interest shall be credited during each

Account under the Plan.

                                   DIVIDENDS

  5.1    CREDITING OF DIVIDENDS.  Each Director with shares credited to his or
her Stock Deferred Fee Account on the record date of a dividend on the Company's
common stock shall be credited on the payment date of the dividend with an
amount determined by the product of the number of shares credited to the
Director's Stock Deferred Fee Account on the dividend record date and the
dividend per share on the Company's common stock.  Such amount shall be credited
on the dividend payment date to the Director's Cash Deferred Fee Account, unless
the Director at such time has a Deferred Fee Agreement in effect which provides
for the deferral of any portion of the Directors fees otherwise payable during
the period which includes the dividend payment date to be credited to the
Director's Stock Deferred Fee Account.  In such a case, the dividend
reinvestment provisions of Section 5.2 shall apply.

  5.2    DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT SHARES.  If the Director has a Deferred Fee
Agreement in effect on the payment date of dividends on the Company's common
stock and such Deferred Fee Agreement provides for any portion of the Director's
fees otherwise payable during the period which includes the dividend payment
date to be credited to the Director's Stock Deferred Fees Account, then on the
dividend payment date the Director's Stock Deferred Fee Account shall be
credited with a number of shares determined by dividing the amount of the
dividends for the Director as determined under Section 5.1 by  ninety-seven
percent (97%) of Fair Market Value of the Company's common stock on the dividend
payment date.

continue to result in the crediting of additional amounts to a Director's Cash
Deferred Fee Account or additional Shares to the Director's Stock Deferred Fee
Account as determined under Article V during the installment payout period.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment of shares from a Director's

but not limited to corporate law, securities law and stock exchange rules.  If
Shares may not be issued, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws
requirements, the Fair Market Value of the Shares credited to a Director's
Deferred Fees Account shall be distributed in cash.
