Riley-Bolten House, Colonial Revival house in North Bethesda, Montgomery County, United States.
The Riley-Bolten House features a one-and-a-half-story frame structure from the early nineteenth century with a mid-nineteenth century log wing addition.
The property belonged to Isaac Riley, who owned Josiah Henson, whose autobiography influenced the creation of the novel Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe.
Washington D.C. architect Lorenzo S. Winslow renovated the house between 1936 and 1939, incorporating elements of Colonial Revival architecture during the development period.
The property maintains its historical significance on one acre of land, located at coordinates 39.0439° N latitude and -77.1214° W longitude in Maryland.
The original slave quarters where Josiah Henson resided were present until the 1950s when the surrounding plantation transformed into residential development.
