Annapolis is one of Maryland’s most distinctive markets for outdoor design. The combination of Chesapeake Bay waterfront properties, historic colonial architecture, and the affluent residential communities surrounding the Naval Academy creates unique design challenges — and unique opportunities.
Wade has worked on Annapolis properties for over two decades. We understand the drainage patterns of Anne Arundel County properties, the permit process for pool and hardscape installations, the HOA guidelines common in waterfront communities, and the soil and climate conditions that determine which plantings and construction materials perform best year after year.
From the historic streets near the State House to the waterfront estates on Spa Creek and the Severn River, our team delivers designs that respect each property’s character while pushing the quality of outdoor living to the highest level.
