Crab Cakes and Football Historic District

Soak up the vintage charm of this restored property. The house features a private master suite balcony, an open-plan living space, chic eclectic furnishings, exposed brick, a wood burning fireplace, a front garden, and an outdoor back BBQ area. STR# 143754 When we decided to convert to a short term rental I looked at other properties in the area and how they described them. I could tell you the house was built in 1901 and is located in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in historic Annapolis. That's all well and good but to be honest there's a book on the coffee table that will tell you all the history (if you really want to know). I might not know a lot about writing a great summary but after almost 3 decades of living in Annapolis I think I know what people want: 1) Great food and drink! 2) Great location for walking to everything and.. 3) An outdoor area to enjoy the mornings and evenings during any down time. Unfortunately the one thing that can really ruin the fun is PARKING! Well guess what, we've got all the things I listed above and not one parking spot, but TWO (right at your back door!). Don't be fooled when other properties offer you a parking pass. That does not mean you'll be parking near your rental! Enjoy full access to our home. We do not live there so it is not cluttered with "stuff". Consider it a hotel with all the amenities of home! We live 5-10 minutes from the property so you'll have your privacy but we are nearby if you need assistance. We are available by text or calling for any questions or help you may need. The home is in the Art District of Annapolis right in the middle of all the fun. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city center during the day and evening, but return to a quiet neighborhood to recharge. Free designated parking for 2 cars. Park upon arrival and you my never need your car again until your departure! No parties. Dogs welcome on a case by case basis.
