Historic Ellicott City, Inc. Presents Homewood Farm
The 24th Annual 2008 Decorator Show House

Located on 16 acres once part of historic Doughoregan Manor, the home of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, Homewood Farm projects easy elegance, sophistication and charm.

Centrally located in Howard County, just north of Route 108 and the town of Columbia, this classic brick home is an ideal palette for the area’s best designers, who have been inspired to create tableaus rich in ideas for visitors to adapt to their own homes.

After exploring the interior of the house you are welcome to enjoy the Boutique, Shoemaker Country, Wild Goose Chase Antiques, and Brian’s Catering.

Historic Ellicott City, Inc. is the show house sponsor. Proceeds from this fundraiser are used to promote its mission of preservation, restoration and education in Howard County, particularly the mill replica the organization plans to build in the Historic District of Ellicott City.

Thursday: 10am–8pm, Sunday: 12pm–5pm
Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday & Saturday: 10am–4pm
