Richland Farm

The 135-acre agricultural property contains multiple structures including a manor house, superintendent's residence, bank barn, stone springhouse, and smokehouse.

The earliest structure on the property, a log cabin attached to the central section of the manor house, dates back to 1781 during the Revolutionary War.

The property illustrates the evolution of rural Howard County architecture from the late 18th century through substantial additions and modifications in 1846 and 1919.

The manor house extends across 6,700 square feet of living space, featuring six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and French doors leading to garden views.

A 2005 renovation maintained period accuracy while incorporating modern amenities such as an updated kitchen and central climate control systems.
