Stately French Villa on Spa Creek in downtown Annapolis! This jewel box of a home was designed and built by a renowned local architect as the culmination of an award-winning career. Offered completely turn-key, this exceptional residence conveys fully furnished and thoughtfully appointed—including furniture, fully equipped kitchen, linens, etc —allowing you to arrive with nothing more than a suitcase and begin enjoying the Annapolis waterfront lifestyle from day one. The unrivaled architectural detail, exquisitely curated finishes, and sweeping views across Spa Creek elevate this residence into a class of its own. Privately positioned at the end of a quiet street within one of downtown’s most coveted waterfront enclaves, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath retreat is equally suited as an elegant weekend escape or a full-time residence. Dramatic Palladian windows bathe the interiors in natural light while perfectly framing the ever-changing harbor views. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen—appointed with custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and a striking designer hood—flows seamlessly into both the formal living room and inviting family room, each enhanced by a gas fireplace and captivating water vistas. A main-level secondary primary suite offers comfort and flexibility for guests of all generations. Upstairs, the extraordinary waterside primary suite features vaulted ceilings, walls of glass, a gas fireplace, spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, and a custom dressing room with center island. A private balcony provides the ideal perch for sunrise coffee or sunset reflections overlooking Spa Creek, Annapolis Harbor, and Eastport. Designed for effortless waterfront living, two deep-water piers with approximately 9 feet of MLW accommodate substantial vessels, with immediate access to the Severn River, the Chesapeake Bay, and beyond. Walkable to the shops, restaurants, and charm of downtown, this rare offering delivers convenience, privacy, elegance, and ease in one remarkable package. Welcome Home!
