  We investigate the influence of spatially inhomogeneous chiral
symmetry-breaking condensates in a magnetic field background on the equation of
state for compact stellar objects. After building a hybrid star composed of
nuclear and quark matter using the Maxwell construction, we find, by solving
the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations for stellar equilibrium, that our
equation of state supports stars with masses around 2 $M_\odot$ for values of
the magnetic field that are in accordance with those inferred from magnetar
data. The inclusion of a weak vector interaction term in the quark part allows
one to reach 2 solar masses for relatively small central magnetic fields,
making this composition a viable possibility for describing the internal
degrees of freedom of this class of astrophysical objects.
