About This Home

Welcome to 198 Clay Street in the heart of Annapolis! This charming row home offers water views of College Creek and a short stroll to downtown and West Annapolis, where shops, dining, entertainment, and the U.S. Naval Academy are right at your doorstep. The location also provides easy commuter access to Routes 50 and 97 for Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and BWI Airport. Thoughtfully updated in the past year, the home features new flooring and paint throughout, all new kitchen appliances, countertops, and sink, new siding, four mini-split units, and all new upstairs windows. Walls were opened between the kitchen, dining, and laundry areas to create a more open flow, and a new upper-deck door leads to an expanded rooftop deck with water views. Additional highlights include exposed brick and beamed ceilings, a fenced rear yard, private access to College Creek, and rare rear parking. With a proven rental history including $21,500 earned on Airbnb in 2024, this home is ideal as a primary residence or investment opportunity.
