About the home

Curtis Point sits at the junction of the West River and the Chesapeake Bay, and this estate occupies the tip of it — over 250 feet of protected shoreline wrapping around a site that has held its own landmark status since the early 1900s. The property began as the Girton House Hotel, later served the community as Danes on the Bay restaurant, and now stands as a private residence carrying that layered history quietly in its bones.

The deep-water pier accommodates both sailing vessels and power yachts, with roughly six-plus feet at mean low water and multiple boat lifts. Inside, eight bedrooms and expansive common spaces reflect a scale suited to the setting. Annapolis is about twenty miles up the road; Washington, D.C., roughly forty-five.
