This elegantly designed single-floor community lounge offers a refined and welcoming atmosphere defined by soaring ceilings and rich, dark hardwood flooring throughout. The main gathering area is anchored by a sleek, contemporary fireplace with a mounted flat-screen television above, surrounded by multiple thoughtfully arranged seating groupings that include plush sofas, curved accent chairs, and stylish side tables. A striking sputnik-style chandelier draws the eye upward, complementing the recessed lighting that illuminates the open layout. Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass-panel doors flood the space with abundant natural light while offering views of the surrounding exterior courtyard, creating a bright and airy ambiance. Textured accent columns add architectural depth and visual interest throughout the room. A separate dining area features round glass-top tables paired with upholstered chairs in a soft blue-grey palette, set beneath equally lofty ceilings. The space also includes a fully equipped kitchen outfitted with dark wood cabinetry, white subway tile backsplash, light tile flooring, and stainless steel appliances including a side-by-side refrigerator and dishwasher. Together, these areas create a cohesive, multi-functional environment ideal for both relaxation and social gatherings.

Annapolis, Maryland's capital city, sits along the Chesapeake Bay, where approximately 41,000 residents call home. The downtown area features brick-lined streets where 18th-century architecture stands alongside waterfront communities. The United States Naval Academy commands the waterfront, while St. John's College contributes to the city's educational landscape. Residents have access to waterfront parks, including the 340-acre Quiet Waters Park, offering everything from kayaking to seasonal ice skating. The historic district remains a central gathering place, with independent shops, seafood restaurants, and the City Dock area, known locally as "Ego Alley."
The rental market in Annapolis reflects its waterfront location and array of housing options. Current trends show one-bedroom apartments averaging $2,151, while two-bedroom units typically rent for $2,430. Three-bedroom units have seen an 8.1% decrease in rental rates.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
