For auction: Phillips Seafood mansion in Annapolis boasts 7 bedrooms, 8 baths, 1 secret tunnel; most expensive home available in Maryland

A 23-acre estate in Annapolis at 1604 Winchester Road, owned by the CEO of Phillips Seafood, is the most expensive home for sale in Maryland listed at $24.9 million with no reserve, according to Concierge Auctions, the real estate auction firm handling the sale.

Before the Phillips family acquired the mansion in 2002, it had a vivid history dating back to 1660 when the land was obtained by William Hopkins, a prominent plantation owner unrelated to Johns Hopkins. The property changed hands several times and was even owned by the Hammond family, prominent colonial landholders in Anne Arundel County, according to the listing agent TTR Sotheby’s International Realty. A still existing tunnel system on the property suggests that it may have been a stop on the Underground Railroad.

  1. If this is all that’s needed to avoid hiking fried chicken prices like Crab Bag did by 50%, I am all for Phillips keeping their 4 pc chicken carry out at $9!
