Brice House, Georgian mansion in Annapolis, United States.

The Brice House features a five-part brick structure with a central block, two pavilions, and connecting sections built on an elevated foundation.

James Brice, who served as acting Governor of Maryland in 1792, documented the construction process from 1767 to 1774, recording costs of over 4,000 pounds.

Archaeological excavations in 1998 revealed spiritual offerings made by African American slaves who worked at the property during colonial times.

The mansion remains closed to visitors during an extensive restoration project led by Historic Annapolis to return the structure to its 1774 appearance.

The mansion contains a ballroom fireplace designed according to specifications from a 1745 architectural pattern book, making it a rare colonial example.
