A Truly Unique Annapolis Home Sublime

A Truly Unique Annapolis Home

By Lisa J. Gotto

Sublime Severn River views abound throughout this marvel of a home located in the highly desirable community of Wardour. “My clients were looking for deep water in an established neighborhood for their family, that was also close to town and offered easy access to the highway,” said buyer’s agent, Liz Abele of Long & Foster, Bethesda. “Wardour hit all of those requirements and more. They particularly liked the gracious design throughout the community. Plus, the house is a gem. Bob Hammond, the local architect who designed the home, was exceptional in his attention to detail and use of the location.”

Location, indeed, as the home takes full advantage of its lot placement that offers not only private access to the property, but also water views from almost every room. The residence’s living room offers nearly three complete walls of windows accented with a central wood-burning fireplace. Light hardwood floors flow throughout this large space, which features attractive framing from a pair of architectural columns and the convenience of a wet bar.
