Readbourne, Georgian estate in Queen Anne's County, US

The brick mansion features a T-shaped central portion measuring 60 feet by 23 feet with Flemish bond walls and a hip roof construction.

James Hollyday, a notable politician during the Province of Maryland era, constructed the central block of Readbourne in the early 1730s.

The National Register of Historic Places included Readbourne in 1973, marking its contribution to American architectural and historical documentation.

The property extends across 212 acres along the Chester River in Centreville, providing views of the Maryland waterfront landscape.

The mansion developed in three distinct phases, with the south wing added in 1791 and the north wing completing the five-part Georgian design in 1948.
