This gorgeous 2,500-square-foot townhome, built in 1900 and located in the heart of downtown Annapolis, underwent a complete upgrade and remodel in 2018. The enviable open-plan living experience maintains much of property’s historical character.
This character begins right at the front door, as you enter through a restored version of the home’s original door and walk into an architecturally-detailed vestibule that has retained the charm of its original floor tiles. Another very early 20th century period entry door leads you into the heart of the home and its amazing newel post staircase.
It is evident that everything has been done to enhance the superb craftsmanship of the home. The roomy living room with its rich, two-tone hardwoods is highlighted with a central gas fireplace located in an attractive feature wall. This space-dividing, two-sided feature is just as eye-catching on the opposite side with its built-in shelving and exposed brick chimney. Attractive crown molding accents the entire open-plan living space.
The large dining area flows effortlessly into the cool-toned gourmet kitchen providing a great space for entertaining. The spacious kitchen retains an original fireplace façade now used as a nostalgic design element. Supple slabs of marble grace countertops and a central island, and any in-home chef would envy the room’s collection of stainless-steel appliances including a six-burner gas range.
Ascend the character-enhancing main staircase to the second floor and you’ll find a roomy primary bedroom and en suite bath with double basin vanity and exquisite finishes. The bedroom boasts a room-warming wall of shiplap, a cozy desk nook, and an attractive sliding barn door feature that separates the bedroom and bathroom. This floor also offers an additional two bedrooms with a shared bath. Large windows, original to the home, in all the bedrooms provide generous natural light throughout this level.
The home’s third floor offers yet another gracious primary suite with a separate living or reading area, and a beautiful bathroom featuring a large, walk-in shower and soaking tub. Outdoors, a cozy, fenced-in courtyard at the back of the home provides space for seasonal grilling and chilling.
