It’s highly unusual to find a home that passes inspection with not a single issue to be addressed. But that’s exactly the case for this home in Eastport. When Beth Levitt was asked to list this house, she was confident that the spotless condition of the entire property—from landscaping to architecture and design—would make it highly competitive. She was right. The home sold in just a couple of days.
When Brian Jacobs, the buyer’s realtor, sits down with his clients to better understand what they are looking for in a property, he frequently hears things like access to the waterfront, proximity to restaurants and shopping in downtown Annapolis, walkability, and manageability. This house met each of these benchmarks and more. The new owner would be working at the Naval Academy and needed convenient walking and driving access to downtown Annapolis and the Yard.
A sidewalk lined with small square pavers leads to a short flight of six steps and a wide covered porch that stretches to each side of the house. Accessories like solid 12-inch pillars and stainless steel lantern door lights are a nod to the home’s Craftsman and transitional design. These elements are conveyed inside the house via simple, clean lines including plantation shutters, window and door trim, and the use of board-and-batten style wainscoting.
Recently renovated to include modern amenities such as solar panels and Hardy Plank cement siding, this home features high ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, wide hallways, and custom finishes. The kitchen stands out with white Shaker-style cabinetry, marble countertops, and stainless steel appliances. A bar with seating space for three connects the kitchen through a pass-through window to the living room. Here, a fireplace anchors the opposite side of the room, and there is plenty of space for multiple seating options.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, including an en suite master. Each room features large closets, high ceilings, and the same hardwood floors as the downstairs level. “The most outstanding feature of this house was how convenient it is to downtown and how beautifully it was designed and maintained,” listing agent Beth Levitt says. “There wasn’t anything in this home that wasn’t done beautifully and tastefully.”
