Property Description
Victorian Elegance Meets Coastal Charm in Annapolis! Experience timeless beauty and modern comfort at this extraordinary custom home in the highly sought-after waterfront community of Hillsmere Shores. This architectural treasure features four expertly designed levels, showcasing HardiePlank siding, Azek trim and decking, walls of windows with water views on the upper levels, oversized Marvin aluminum-clad windows and doors, and impeccable millwork throughout. With its ideal Southern exposure, the home is bathed in natural light that streams through tall windows, highlighting gleaming hardwood floors and intricate staircase spindlework. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and entertaining, featuring a warm and welcoming parlor with a marble-surround gas fireplace, a cozy family room with a wood pellet stove, and a guest bedroom with a peak of the water accompanied by a stylish full bath. The chef’s kitchen is a standout, complete with crisp white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a coffee bar, and ample pantry storage. French doors lead out to the alluring screened porch with Azek decking, the side yard, and the huge deck complete with a sunken hot tub. On the second level, the serene primary suite offers a private sanctuary with an ensuite bath, two closets, and cedar benches. Finishing this level are two generously sized bedrooms, an additional full bath, and a spacious lounge area. Venture to the third level to find the home’s crown jewel—a distinctive loft turret with breathtaking water views and enchanting prism walls, perfect for meditation, yoga, or a peaceful home office. No stone has been left unturned in the thoughtfully designed walkout lower level with a private entrance, boasting a 5th bedroom/office, a rough-in for a bathroom, an expansive storage room with room for workbench, a wet bar, and an incredible Mudroom leading to the 1.5 car garage and driveway with parking for 6 cars. Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard creates a tranquil escape. A young magnolia tree, brick walkways, and elevated positioning enhance the property’s privacy and charm. The expansive cedar-fenced backyard is ideal for hosting gatherings or unwinding in quiet solitude, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Located just steps from the Hillsmere kayak/boat launch and a mere 10-minute drive to downtown Annapolis, this remarkable home combines sophistication, practicality, and an unbeatable location. Plus ALL of the amazing Hillsmere amenities including a private beach, playground, community pool, and walking trail. Just up Hillsmere Drive, you can find the local library and enjoy ice skating, walking trails along the water, the dog park, and art shows/concerts at Quiet Waters Park.
