This sweet coastal retreat, built in 1922, has been marvelously maintained and updated over the years and packs high quality living into 1,100 square feet.
Located along Clements Creek, just off the Severn River, where the Naval Academy stows their vessels to evade the wrath of hurricanes, this property offers everything one needs to live the true Annapolis experience.
A welcoming, expanded entry with sunny windows immediately informs guests they are in for a real treat. Gorgeous wide-planked hardwood floors lead down an entry hall and into the home’s primary bedroom on the right and a fully-renovated bath with a huge, glass panel shower, and many stylish finishes, to the left. The bedroom is large, bright, and cheery with built-ins, a large, double closet, and plenty of space for a separate seating area.
Continuing down the hall, visitors will find the expertly executed open-plan great room with immediate sightlines to the waterfront. The space is bursting with opportunities to create gathering and conversation areas, all with the creek as a backdrop. There’s an absolutely charming, white-washed brick, wood-burning fireplace and seating area, plus ample room for a much larger area that accommodates two couches and additional furnishings.
This space transitions into a lovely, family dining area with exceptional water views and provides access to the home’s darling Juliette balcony. The dining area flows into the home’s all-white, gourmet kitchen with stone-topped counters and center prep island with breakfast seating for three. Glass-front accent cabinetry, a big, sunny window over the sink, and those creek views, make the space a joy to work in.
This home offers two additional large bedrooms on its lower level; each with its own special features. The gorgeous hardwoods continue throughout this level and immediately upon hitting the last stair, guests will notice a stunning, wood-trimmed set of French doors with arch detail leading to the first guest bedroom. This large room is sunny and warm with over-sized windows and its own wood-burning fireplace and rustic accent wall.
The second large bedroom offers an en-suite guest bath, and an over-sized sliding glass door that provides amazing creek views and access to the home’s wrap-around waterside deck. There is also a large laundry and utility room on this floor, as well as another smaller room perfect for use as a home office.
Saving the best for last, outdoor enthusiasts will surely appreciate this property’s private beach and stairs down to the private dock site of this sweet coastal retreat.
