Sinclair House B&B Inn

A Getaway Not Faraway

 

Constructed in 1920, Sinclair House B&B Inn is a stately, two-story home on Tilghman Island in Maryland’s Eastern Shore region. Tilghman connects to the mainland via a short drawbridge. Sinclair House is located in the middle of this three square mile island.

 

This business opportunity allows new owners to share with guests the enjoyment of a quiet, serene getaway from the bustle of the nation’s capital, Baltimore or Philadelphia, all within easy driving distance. Visitors also are drawn from New Jersey, New York, Delaware and Virginia.

 

Traditionally, Tilghman’s menfolk have earned their living harvesting crab, oysters, clams or fish. Visitors come to enjoy that freshly caught seafood, and for kayaking, bicycling or jogging, for fishing excursions, or to sightsee and shop in the nearby historic towns of St. Michaels and Oxford. Tilghman boasts four restaurants within easy walking distance of the Inn.

 

Sinclair House offers four guest rooms on its second floor, each with private bath, A/C, satellite TV and VCR.  Common areas downstairs include enclosed porch, social room, kitchen and a large breakfast room. Owners reside in their private ground floor suite comprising office/TV room, bedroom and bathroom.

 

The home was converted to an inn in 1986. Present owners renovated Sinclair House in 2002, upgrading all systems. The Inn’s beautiful wooden staircase and moldings were left untouched. Unique furnishings and décor earned an award by Arrington’s B&B Journal in 2005.

 

Steady annual growth in bookings prompted a rate increase in 2005, thus adding to profitability.  Repeat guests and referrals are an important source of revenue.
