About this property

Originally founded in the 1600's, Abington Farm, a.k.a Abbington Manor & Stables, is a historic home and stables in Crownsville, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, United States.

Abbington Manor's East Wing (The East Wing is the left side of the residence in the main picture) overlooks the surrounding pastures and horses of Abbington Stables. A small pond rests to the east of the home. From the calls of the cardinals, blujays, goats, and chickens in the morning to the silence of deer and foxes in the evening, this property offers a serenity and quiet not typically found this close to so many metropolitan centers.

Abbington's stately but relaxed setting offers a get away from the business of life. If you decide to enjoy any of the local amenities of DC, Annapolis, or Baltimore, then take advantage of the fact that you're only a short drive to most anywhere you want to go.

Come and enjoy what so many others over the centuries have come to enjoy about Abbington, yet be centrally located to so much:

- 15 minutes from Baltimore/Washtington International Airport.
- 20 minutes from Ft. Meade.
- 30 Minutes to Baltimore's waterfront harbor.
- 15 minutes to Annapolis
- 25 minutes to Washington DC.
- Within an hour of 3 major airports (BWI, Reagan National, Dulles).

* As of March 2021, we've updated the residence with a 3 stage commercial water filtration system!

Fantastic Retreat

We were visiting our son at the Naval Academy. It was about a 25 minute drive in. The home was LOVELY and cozy. The surrounding area of the home was peaceful and beautiful. My favorite was the stock of bathroom towels and wash clothes in case we needed it, which we did. They had the shower stocked with soap, shampoo and conditioner. The beds were comfortable, home was very clean, air conditioner worked great. Kitchen is small, but very useable. We made a full pasta dinner with homemade sauce and made breakfast every day. It was very private and you would never know someone else was on the property. We stayed 4 days and overall, it was fantastic.

Up en downs

Our stay was very interesting. The house was beautiful. The environmetn was green, lots of birds and wide. Gave you een feeling of space. The owners are attent and reacted quickly on a request from us. After a view days we were commanded not to smoke on the entire property. We were unaware this was not allowed, because usually the non smoking policy concerns the inside of the house. The way we were addressed, did not make us happy and we decided to ask for a converation the next day, about the style of conversation. Happely the owner came by himself the next day and we had a good conversation. There was a better understanding after this. The rest of our stay was quiet in harmony and we had a great time with our family and friends. The coffee machine was great. The kitchen was not wel equiped and the stove was not horizontal, so it was a kind of struggle to cook. I used spoons to level the cooking pots. We were happy with the internet, television, washing machine and dryer.

We didn’t want to leave!

We had the best time at Abbington! The house was pristine when we arrived and so beautifully decorated. The house had everything we needed and so many towels- a real bonus for our crew! The owners and family are so lovely and we enjoyed getting to know them. The property is heavenly! Morning coffee on the front porch was our favorite and our girls loved swinging on the swing, running in the front yard, and spotting the geese and horses. The location was perfect for us and great for kids! Close to stores and restaurants and a shorty trip to DC and Baltimore. We were so sad to leave but look forward to visiting again! Thank you for such a lovely stay!

About the host

Hosted by Aaron & Angela Buehler

We've been blessed to be able to take care of such a unique, historic and beautiful property. We, along with our boys, love Abbington and believe you will too.

Why they chose this property

After receiving a Charter from King Charles I, Lord Baltimore (who married Anne Arundal) gifted the property of Abington to John Gaither of local fame and notoriety (founder of Gaithersburg). The property was given to Gaither around 1640 by Lord Baltimore. The house sits facing the main road which was once an Indian trail through the region. The main house is a 2 ¹⁄₂-story frame, side-passage, double-pile house with additions on both gable ends. The main block dates from about 1840. Steps in the cellar date back all the way to the early 1600's! On the properties are several outbuildings, including a stone and frame ice house, a frame, brick, and stone springhouse/dairy, a frame privy, chicken house, tool shed, a corncrib, a large, elaborate frame stable; and a frame tenant house. Abbington is on the National Register of Historic Places and the Maryland Historic Trust.
