Homewood Farm

Mar 12, 2008

Homewood Farm is located on land that was once part of the Doughoregan Manor estate belonging to Charles Carroll of Carrollton, one of the four signers from Maryland of the Declaration of Independence. This portion of the original 10,000-acre property consists of sixteen acres, with lovely trees, large stables, a swimming pool, and tennis court. The house is centrally located in Howard County, just north of Route 108 and the town of Columbia.

While not an historic structure itself, the show house does have a feel that respects its historic roots, reflected in its lovely moldings, gracious stairway, large windows that bring in light, and beautiful hardwood floors.

This classic brick home presented an ideal palette for the area’s best designers to create tableaus rich in ideas for visitors to adapt to their own homes. The home is located on Homewood Road, Ellicott City, Maryland.

The Chairpersons were Claire Fulton, Lorna Ozgun and Wanda Mathews. The show house was open from September 29 through October 19, 2008. Almost 5,000 guests visited Homewood Farm during the event.
