(Circa 1810) Chaney Private
An unusual feature of this twostory early Victorian structure is its hinped roof and two exterior chimneys at each end. The floor plan consists of a center hall flanked by double parlors to each side. >lhile almost all of the interior fabric is of early Victorian character, there is a rather finely executed Federal mantel in one ground-floor room. To one end of the main block is a later kitchen-service wing, also of frame construction.
This property has been officially designated as a Calvert County Historical i::'istrict.
