Annapolis Farmhouse Summary

You will find a peaceful retreat from the world at Harwood House. We are located on nearly 8 acres, a tree farm. Our woods are filled with beautiful specimen trees including walnuts, oaks, maples and hornbeam. Maryland’s second largest European linden (registered with the Maryland Big Tree Program) graces our grounds. Beneath it, one feels a powerful connection with nature; it’s been dubbed the “Grandfather Tree” by one shaman because the animals seem to respect it. Inside, you will find sleeping space for 10, with a variety of room arrangements. We offer two queen bedrooms en suite, including spacious baths with soaking tub, steam shower, and sitting room. The “dorm” functions as sleeping space for 3 with a sitting room, or sleeping space for 4 using its daybed. There is an additional bedroom with 2 twin beds that shares a bath with the “dorm”. Our spacious library is available for meeting or gathering space and includes a working fireplace, as does the parlor.

Notes: Twelve miles from Annapolis, Maryland's capital, the United States' colonial capital and the sailing capital of the United States, Harwood House sits on the site of a building first erected in 1807 and is constructed with those original colonial bricks. Newly renovated inside with the latest in kitchen, bath and furnishings, it's ready to be your comfortable old house in the woods for that special retreat or event. Two working fireplaces, old world feeling, bucolic setting on a tree farm thirty miles from Baltimore or Washington, DC, it can serve as a convenient base of operations. The Eastern Shore is half an hour away; the ocean about 2 1/2 hours.


Annapolis Farmhouse Details

We welcome you to Harwood House, a southern Maryland farmhouse located in Harwood, Maryland. For more than a decade, it has been a wonderful place to raise our children. We have also hosted many gatherings: Native American shamans such as Lench; contemporary commentators and authors, including John Perkins; educators and cinematographers, including Academy Award winner Gabriela Christiani. We were married under the majestic, ancient linden tree on the lawn. Now were delighted to share our home with you.

You will find a peaceful retreat from the world at Harwood House. We are located on nearly 8 acres, a tree farm. Our woods are filled with many beautiful specimen trees including walnuts, oaks, maples and hornbeam. Maryland’s second largest European linden (registered with the Maryland Big Tree Program) graces our grounds. Beneath it, one feels a powerful connection with nature; it’s been dubbed the “Grandfather Tree” by one shaman because the animals seem so to respect it. Those animals that frequent our woods range from birds (including our resident Swainton’s hawk, owls and wild turkey) to deer, raccoon, fox and other wildlife. Peaceful outdoor spaces abound. Sitting in the gazebo, on the lawn, under the linden, on the flagstone patio by the fountain brings one calm and creates space for reflection and profound inspiration. A fire pit with patio is available for outdoor gatherings weather permitting. Inside, gracious large space with two working wood burning fireplaces.
