Property size: 4,165-square-foot home has four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and one half-bathroom and an attached one-car garage on 0.29 acres.

Unique features: This Cape Cod house in Annapolis’ Eastport neighborhood makes it easy to enjoy warm breezes and birdsong during the warm-weather months, while also providing a cozy vantage point in the fall and winter for observing nature at its most dramatic, from thunderstorms to blizzards.

In the summer, the Florida room is a screened-in porch, ideal for cocktails with friends. In the winter, the same space transforms into a sunroom, with a custom enclosure and its own heating and cooling system.

Want to enjoy more of the great outdoors? Step onto the upper-level outdoor deck with its view of the backyard with landscape lighting, or onto the lower-level covered porch.

Other standout features include a home elevator that makes aging in place a breeze, and the kitchen with its oversized, granite-topped, two-level island made of cherry wood. The clever design separates cooking and food prep on the island’s lower counter from the family eating on the upper counter.

The kitchen cabinets are made of maple and painted white, the appliances are stainless steel, and the open floor plan flows seamlessly into the living room.

This house also includes hardwood floors, built-in bookcases, wood plantation shutters and two gas fireplaces with custom-built mantels in the living room and family room.

Other decorative flourishes incorporate coffered ceilings, detailed millwork, and hallway windows with decorative ironwork.

Even the bathrooms are beautiful, with fancy sinks and ornamental tilework embedded into the floor, on the walls of the walk-in showers, and on the sides of a spacious soaking tub.
