Throughout much of its more than 260-year history, the Rosedale Farmhouse was the heart of a large farm and estate lying just north of Georgetown. Said to be the oldest home still standing in the Cleveland Park neighborhood of Washington, D.C., the farmhouse and its sculptured grounds were named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The property was rescued in 2002 thanks to an award-winning neighborhood effort that saw the Farmhouse restored and returned to residential use and the grounds opened to the public and placed in the care of the Rosedale Conservancy. This is the story of an historic place that today stands protected, looking much the same as it has for more than two centuries.
