Teackle Mansion, Neoclassical mansion in Princess Anne, Maryland.
Teackle Mansion is a Neoclassical house in Princess Anne with symmetrical facades, tall columns, and balanced proportions throughout. The interior rooms remain furnished with period pieces that reflect early 19th-century design standards and ways of living.
The house was built between 1802 and 1819 by merchant Littleton Dennis Teackle during a period of economic growth in Princess Anne. Its construction shows the success and wealth that commerce brought to the region during those years.
The Somerset County Historical Society now uses the house to display local artifacts and documents that tell the story of the region and its past. Visitors can explore these collections as they move through the rooms.
The property sits on about 9 acres of land and visitors can take guided tours to explore the rooms and historical collections inside. Check ahead for tour times and days, as they operate on a regular but limited schedule.
The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, giving it official recognition as an important cultural landmark. This designation reflects how the building and its architecture matter to the broader story of the region's heritage.
