Luxury Living Meets Enchanted Woodland Oasis“Enchanted” and “magical” are words that get thrown around in real estate until they lose their meaning. Here, in Davidsonville—just minutes from historic Annapolis and within easy reach of both Washington, DC and Baltimore—they’re simply accurate.Set on 4.92 private acres, this 7,108‑square‑foot estate offers four bedrooms, five full bathrooms, a dedicated office, fitness space, and an additional 2,000‑square‑foot finished lower level. The home offers a rare combination of refined living, thoughtful updates, and true privacy—without giving up connection to the world beyond it. Annapolis, with its waterfront, dining, and cultural life, is right up the road. DC and Baltimore are each an easy commute away. And yet, once you turn down the drive and the property opens up around you, the outside world truly falls away.The grounds themselves are an experience. Designed and maintained by the celebrated Homestead Gardens—with ongoing professional maintenance included through the end of the year—the landscaping here is not an accessory but a defining feature. A heated saltwater gunite pool (2019) catches the afternoon light. A fire pit marks the transition from manicured gardens to wooded acreage, where a path leads to Flat Creek. A conservation easement protects the surrounding woods, ensuring the natural setting remains forever preserved. A butterfly boardwalk (2021) winds from the gardens to the pool along the edge of the woods—an uncommon and charming feature of the landscape. And yes, there are chickens—because even estate living should have a bit of charm.Inside, the home pairs scale with craftsmanship and makes a strong first impression. A grand entry foyer is flanked by a formal dining room, a generously scaled living room, and a classic wood‑paneled office, ideal as a dedicated workspace or library. The main level offers exceptional flow for both daily living and entertaining, supported by two powder rooms, a spacious laundry room, and a well‑appointed pantry alongside a butler’s pantry, all thoughtfully positioned just off the gourmet kitchen. The screened‑in porch, featuring a wood‑burning fireplace, is one of those rare spaces that works beautifully in every season.All four bedrooms are generously sized and fully en suite, offering comfort and privacy for everyday living and guests alike. The primary suite features a fireplace and a fully renovated, spa‑caliber bath designed at the highest level, centered around a Japanese hot/cold soaking tub. It’s a space that feels less like an en suite and more like a private wellness retreat—luxury meant to be lived in.The walk‑out lower level adds approximately 2,000 finished square feet, distinguished by unusually high ceilings and abundant natural light. Flexible finished spaces easily accommodate a home gym, media room, play space, studio, or wine‑theater lounge—ready to serve today, with room to adapt as life evolves.Minutes to Annapolis. An easy commute to Washington or Baltimore. And yet, once you’re here—fire going, woods behind you, pool reflecting the last light of day—none of it feels remotely close. That is the rare gift of 4.92 acres in Davidsonville. Enchantment, defined.This is a property best experienced in person. Private appointments available.
