About this property

Cheerful Cottage Home near Annapolis in Beautiful Chesapeake Bay Beach setting

Settle in by a cozy wood fire, walk the beaches at sunrise, visit Historic Annapolis museums, restaurants, and vibrant nightlife. The house sleeps 6 or 7 and is fully set up with fresh linens, fluffy towels, a soaker tub, and filled with good books and original art. The private backyard is fully fenced, surrounded by bamboo, two fish ponds and a life-size Buddha statue. Grill something delicious and eat on the back deck, enjoy the birdsong and the fragrant wisteria arbor. It's one of the original 1940s cottages built in the Bay Ridge resort community, renovated for comfort while keeping the charm.

Why they chose this property

Step out the front door and turn right. In two minutes you have the whole length of the wide Chesapeake Bay where you can watch sailboats, osprey, cotton candy clouds, and the best sunrises around. All of it mirrored in the water. Each of our beaches has a different view, and just the right spot to sit and soak it all in.

What makes this property unique

This 1940s cottage has the charm of a favorite summer place, the comfort of a cozy winter getaway, and one of a kind quirky garden. It was called Owl Park when it was built after the Bay Ridge resort made way for summer homes. Now it's a sought-after neighborhood for Annapolitans who enjoy friendly walks, happy dogs, and the woods, beaches and gorgeous views
