About this property

Sophisticated Charmer with Parking & Views of the USNA Chapel Dome

  • Hello and Welcome to Annapolis! You are going to love this home.

    IMPORTANT: if you are enquiring about USNA Commissioning week please send us a message request. USNA Commissioning current base rates are $12,000 for a 7-night minimum stay.

    We purchased this home January 2010 and lived here for 6 happy years with our 3 boys. We are fully licensed as a short term rental home by the City of Annapolis. Located in the heart of the Historic District, and steps away from the US Naval Academy and the Maryland State Capital, our home was built in 1890, and renovated in the 1920s, 1990s, and again in 2010!

    The Navy Marine Corps football stadium is 1 mile away, and a pleasant walk on a nice day (and much faster than driving through the game day traffic!). Popular wedding destinations (William Paca House, Annapolis Yacht Club) are a short stroll from the front door, and an easy walk to Main Street and the City Dock with all its restaurants, shops, and tour boats make this the perfect in-town location.

    We've decorated and furnished the home with a nod to the historic character of the architecture. There are built-ins, hidden compartments, detailed moldings, a double staircase, a sun porch looking onto King George Street and a fully stocked "Cook's kitchen." The formal dining room is adjacent to the kitchen and features an antique dining table from the 1920's. Though not entirely "historic" the house does also include wireless internet, basic cable, a DVD player, and a large flat screen TV.

    Upstairs, the Master suite was designed with a more modern feel and features a large bathroom (which was featured in Annapolis Home Magazine) and second floor sun porch overlooking the back yard with views towards State Circle. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has a pair of twin beds with a view of the Navy Chapel dome! There is also another another recently renovated full bathroom on the 2nd floor.

    We have 2 off-street parking spots and a beautifully landscaped backyard with a patio and grill, shady trees and plenty of room for a backyard get together. An additional 2 parking spaces may be reserved by request (seasonal fees may apply).

    Mature groups only. This is not a party house. Ideal for families, Navy parents, history buffs, and parents of the bride or groom. We look forward to speaking with you!

Perfect location! Lovely home!

Less than 5-minute walk to Town or the US Naval Academy. The home was perfect for our stay! We had friends in the area who drove and had a place to park. The home had plenty of space to relax! Great stay!

Perfect commissioning home!

We had a wonderful stay during commissioning. The house is charming, warm and cozy yet spacious. Plenty of room in the formal dining area and backyard to host a gathering of 20 family members. The location can’t be beat! Very short distance to the Yard and downtown. Kristjiana was a lovely and accessible host.

Perfection!

Spent a beautiful week at this lovely home for my daughter’s wedding at the William Paca House & Gardens. The owners are so generous and gracious. Everything you could need is provided - including crab mallets. You can’t ask for a more perfect location with easy walks to everything downtown. We loved it!

Fabulous reunion home

We came for my husbands 40th reunion. It was the perfect house. Close to everything and so comfy with wonderful bedrooms, kitchen, living quarters and backyard. The parking was also wonderful because there are not a lot of places to park. We had excellent communication. Very quick to reply. Thanks for a great place. I would stay there again and recommend it to anyone.

Great spot!

Perfect location to walk all of Annapolis! Easy to find. Off street parking so you car is safe. Owners are super nice and accommodating. Master bath is terrific. Front closed on porch is the best for hanging out with the windows open. House is well appointed with everything you need to relax and have a great weekend in a great town. We have stayed in 3 VRBOs in Annapolis when we visit and this is the best by far!

Cozy Charmer

Thank you for sharing your wonderful house. We found it to be a clean, cozy, relaxing and peaceful property. It was within great distance to the Naval Acdemy which was awesome for attending Navy’s soccer exhibition game and to downtown. It had a wonderful and peaceful backyard for relaxing. The only negative was the outdoor patio furniture. It had debris and cob webs on it which I feel should be cleaned as well before guests arrival. Other than that we loved our stay!! We would definitely stay here again! Oh, the big plus was the parking; its own driveway, which was awesome!!

Home away from home

Look no further for your home away from home in the best location possible. Our family decided to do a staycation to live the downtown life for a few days. Kristjana went above and beyond. She left scooters in the backyard for our children to play with and had the home stocked with toys. We spent our mornings walking to local coffee shops to get breakfast/coffee to go, eating it at the city dock, then walking over to the nearby playground for the boys to play. Then our evenings were spent enjoying the beautiful backyard. The location does not get any better. The home was decorated perfectly and made us all feel at home. I just can’t say enough good things about the home or host. If I could rate it a 10, I would. Thank you Kristjana for allowing your home to be a place that families and friends can create memories. We can’t wait for our next staycation!!

Perfect house for our first trip to Annapolis! House is beautiful from the front porch to the wonderful spacious backyard! When we weren't out and about in town, we were either in the backyard or on the front porch! The bedrooms were perfect for our crew and even our teenagers commented how comfortable the beds were! The house is perfect location to main street and to walk everywhere! Having parking at the house was a great bonus!!! Definitely will be back!

FANTATSIC! This was the fourth time we stayed at this home. It's location and proximity to the downtown area restaurants and to the yacht club make it an ideal place for us while we are sailboat racing in Annapolis. The parking on site is a huge asset as well. I love hearing the Naval Academy clock tower chiming....so rich in history! We will be back next year!
