Filed under: Estates

Folly Quarter Farm in Ellicott City, Maryland is a horse-breeding farm on 54 acres. The rolling hills hold a ten-stall horse barn and five out buildings. The stone manor house was built in 1936 by the owners of Pimlico Race Track. It is over 8000 square feet with six bedrooms and a grand style that includes marble floors, mahogany woodwork and plaster embellished ceilings. A separate guest cottage, pool and tennis court round out the estate. The listing reveals that Folly Quarter Farm was originally part of a 10,000 acre Doughregan Manor Farm owned by Charles Carroll, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. This classic horse property is listed at $17 million.

Potomac, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

For $12.5 million this gorgeous estate in Potomac, Maryland could be your new abode. A colonial style home built in 2004, this massive house has ten bedrooms, eleven baths and five powder rooms. With 2.7 acres to enjoy, including the 50-foot swimming pool with waterfalls and lighted outdoor tennis court, this 25,000 square feet house affords plenty of space for entertaining guests or hosting large family gatherings. Every room that could be conceived of is included -- media room, wine cellars, staff quarters, exercise room and sauna, and a six-car garage. Plus it is conveniently close to downtown Washington D.C. and a few nearby airports. All it needs is a barn for horses to make it complete -- at least in my eyes.
