Beautiful Baltimore home with incredible connection to VERY famous Duchess hits the market for $1 million

A house worthy of a duchess has hit the Baltimore real estate market for $1 million.

Built in 1886, this beautiful estate once served as an educational facility for the former Duchess of Windsor and American socialite Wallis Simpson.

The 3,600-square-foot complex – which has six bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms – served as Miss O’Donnell’s school when Wallis lived at the property, according to the Baltimore Sun.

She later returned to the property to make tea with her old teacher, Ada O’Donnell Boone, the publication said.

“You’re not just buying a home; you’re inheriting an inheritance,” the Redfin ad says.

Even more impressive is that the home has 18 rooms and the new owner would be only the sixth owner of the property, according to Redfin. The sale is being brokered by Marc Cashin and Ashling McGowan.

But the house on North Calvert Street was more than just Wallis’ schoolhouse. According to the listing, it also hosted some of Baltimore’s most prominent residents and held charity events.

The original owners, Sarah and Francis White, hosted fundraisers at the home for impoverished families and children with special needs, the Baltimore Sun reported.

Although the house is centuries old, it is both modern and elegant. According to Redfin, five owners “meticulously” renovated the historic home in 2015, installing a new kitchen, bathroom, heating and ventilation systems, plumbing and electrical at a cost of over $350,000.

“Experience the elegance of a bygone era, complemented by the conveniences of modern living,” the ad says.

In addition to the crystal chandeliers, the stained glass windows were also restored.

The four-story home, located 40 minutes outside of Washington, DC, also features the original freestanding bathtub from 1876, according to the listing.

It also offers five parking spaces and a fenced backyard for the privacy you need.

The interior of the house is decorated with deep wood colors and dark and neutral painted walls, which create an elegant ambience.

The living room has a round bay window, a fireplace and several large windows that provide natural light.

The room leads to a taupe-colored dining area, which also features large windows and a fireplace.

The kitchen, with its floor-to-ceiling brick walls, modern tile floors, and marble islands with white cabinets, looks like it came straight out of a cooking show.

All appliances are modern and made of stainless steel and blend naturally into the natural-colored room.

The bedrooms are all painted in dark colors and have the same beautiful hardwood floors.

The master bathroom is all white and marble and has a double sink.

The front of the home is built of “stately marble” that “takes you back to an era where craftsmanship reigned supreme and no detail was overlooked,” the listing says.

Simpson’s old schoolhouse was last sold in 2014 for $330,000.

Simpson was born in Blue Ridge Summit, Pennsylvania in 1896 and died in Paris, France in 1986.

The American socialite married British King Edward VIII after he abdicated the throne to accept her hand because she was divorced.

According to Britannica, she divorced Navy pilot Earl W. Spencer in 1927 after nine years of marriage.

In 1928, she married Ernest A. Simpson, an American living in England. The couple lived near London, where Simpson eventually met Edward, then Prince of Wales.

The American socialite became friends with the royal and eventually fell in love with him, which led her to file for divorce from Simpson in 1936.

However, the British public disliked the fact that Simpson divorced twice, and so Edward finally renounced his title to marry her in December 1936.

“Without the help and support of the woman I love, it is impossible for me to bear the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as King as I would like to,” he said in a famous radio address, according to Britannica.

After his abdication he became Duke of Windsor.

When Simpson’s divorce was final in 1937, the couple married in France on June 3, 1937.
