144 charles street

Timeless Elegance in the Heart of Historic Annapolis. Tucked away on one of Annapolis’ most charming streets, this circa-1900 home blends historic character with thoughtful, high-end renovations. Painted deep navy cedar shingles with crisp white trim, this unique home sits gracefully along a brick-paved sidewalk, just steps from the waterfront, the U.S. Naval Academy, and downtown’s best restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques. Inside, a sense of history lingers with colonial heart pine hardwood floors, original brickwork, and detailed millwork, while modern updates bring effortless style. The family room, with its bay window and plantation shutters, offers a bright, inviting space. Beyond it, the dining room, anchored by custom built-ins that discreetly house a wet bar, wine and beverage refrigerators, and an ice maker is ideal for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen, a showpiece, balancing warmth and sophistication with marble counters, brass and leather hardware, and a custom hood set into an old brick chimney—now framing a Wolf gas range. A paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher blend seamlessly into the cabinetry. French doors open to a large private brick patio, where lush landscaping creates a peaceful retreat with plenty of room to entertain or relax with close friends and family. The primary suite on the second floor features an en-suite bath, with a dual sink, a make up vanity and a large walk in shower. The laundry room is also conveniently located on this level, along with a second full bath and bedroom. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath. Registered in both the Annapolis and National Historic Districts, this home is a rare blend of period charm and modern ease—a place where history meets everyday comfort in the most effortless way.
