This property in the Wardour neighborhood of Annapolis sold for $5.6 million last month, the third most expensive residential property sold in county history, real estate agents said last week.
The broker who sold the 7,600-square-foot Annapolis home said it's a sign the real estate market - particularly for high-end homes - is rebounding after a tough couple of years.
County home sales rose 20 percent in February over the same month a year ago, according to statistics released last week by Metropolitan Regional Information Systems.
"The numbers in our office have doubled," said George Turner, an associate broker with Coldwell Banker in Annapolis. "Since the first of the year, it's just been unbelievable. People that have been looking at these houses over the past couple of years, they may have been able to buy, but they were uncertain because of the economy."
Buyers snatched up 318 homes in February, compared with 265 a year earlier.
The largest number of homes were sold in the Annapolis area, where 71 homes changed hands. The median prices ranged from $387,450 to $590,837 in the three main ZIP code areas."
