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 inquiring about USNA Commissioning week please send us a request. The instant quote MAY NOT be correct. USNA Commissioning current base rates are $12,000 for the week through 2026, and $13,000 for 2027.

We purchased this home January 2010 and did a complete renovation of the kitchen and Master Suite. We are in the heart of downtown historic Annapolis, steps from the US Naval Academy: a one minute walk to Gate 3, and a 4 minute walk to Gate 1. Walk to City Dock, Ego Ally, Maryland State Capital, Main Street and the heart of the historic district, with dozens of fantastic restaurants, boutiques, museums, live music venues and theaters!

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!).

We've decorated and furnished the home with a nod to the historic character of the architecture (the home was built in 1890 and added on in 1920). 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 family and friends looking for luxury getaway. We look forward to speaking with you!

Annapolis Gem
Great walking access to Naval Academy, downtown shops and restaurants. Great bedroom configuration, even provided a Pack-n-Play portable crib and high chair for our grandson. Well appointed kitchen if you want to cook. Very responsive owners.

Annapolis Thanksgiving
Fantastic family stay here over the Thanksgiving holiday. Charm and location of this property hard to beat. Special treat sitting in the sun room and listening to the bells of the naval chapel just yards away!

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!

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!

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!!

About the host

Hosted by Casey and Kristjana Cook

Host profile image
We lived in this house from 2010 to 2015 with 3 small boys and had a blast! As the boys got bigger, we knew it was time to give up being Townies and settle in the 'burbs. But this house is still a huge part of our hearts! When it's not booked, we are often found hanging out in the sunroom, working on our laptops and enjoying people watching and listening to the Chapel bells. Annapolis is also well-known as a "runners town" and still serves as our home-base for the Annapolis 10 miler, Annapolis Half Marathon and the Zooma 10k!

Why they chose this property

One of the very few private homes in Annapolis with off-street parking!! There is complimentary parking for up to 2 cars, and we own an additional 2 spaces that we will consider including on certain dates. Private and quiet back yard with dining furniture, gas grill and plenty of space to relax or host a small gathering. Located close enough to both USNA and St Johns College to hear the bells from both of their bell towers!

What makes this property unique

Did we mention the parking?? If you are coming in during a holiday week, Navy football weekend or Boat Show, parking is in exceedingly high demand. Having the stress-free option of parking off the street right at the front door is something you will be so glad you have!
