403 Holly Dr Annapolis, MD 21403

Listing details for 403 Holly Dr, Annapolis, MD 21403 : Welcome home to Holly Drive and the quiet rhythms of coastal Annapolis living. Some homes are defined by their rooms. 403 Holly Drive is shaped by everyday beauty - soft morning light in the kitchen, afternoons drifting between indoors and out, and evenings softened by bay breezes and birdsong through the trees. Set within the beloved water-privileged Hillsmere Shores community, this updated Craftsman home, built in 2003, offers a rare balance of warmth, refinement, and an unmistakable connection to the water and the outdoors. From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch feels like an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and stay awhile. Inside, the home unfolds with ease and intention. Hardwood floors stretch across both the main and upper levels, grounding the spaces in timeless elegance. The heart of the home is an open, beautifully updated kitchen where crisp white cabinetry, gleaming quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances come together tastefully. Just beyond is the breakfast room, with its vaulted ceiling and a wall of windows offering panoramic views of the meticulously manicured yard, which changes beautifully with the seasons. A spacious family room anchored by a gas fireplace, a convenient powder room, a formal dining room, and a living room off the foyer complete the main level, providing well-balanced flow for everyday living and entertaining. From both the kitchen and the family room, new doors open to the expansive deck. Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard is both beautiful and purposeful - designed to support the local environment while offering a serene setting for play, gardening, and gatherings. Whether hosting dinner with friends, lingering over a weekend brunch, gathering around the fire pit, or simply listening to the sounds of the bay carried on the breeze, this home makes outdoor living feel natural and elegant. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms provide comfort and privacy. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and a newly updated en-suite bath featuring a standing shower, jacuzzi tub, and dual vanities. One additional full bath with a tub/shower combination in the hallway, along with a convenient upper-level laundry room, completes this level. The lower basement level, with a walk-up stairway to the backyard, offers a bright, renovated space that feels anything but secondary. Freshly carpeted, it provides a cozy spot for a playroom, media center, or office. A second, recently updated half bath and a spacious utility storage room complete this level. The bonus room, with double French doors facing the driveway and its own dedicated HVAC zone, could be converted back into a two-car garage or used as extra storage, a gym, workshop, or studio space. You’re not simply looking for a place to live - you’re searching for a new way of living. And at 403 Holly Drive, that way of life is truly special.
