Four estates. One street. A place where the President of the United States once governed for a day – and where you can live for a lifetime.
Brookeville, Maryland · National Register Historic District
On the evening of August 26, 1814, in the aftermath of the British burning of Washington, the young nation’s capital was in crisis. The Capitol, the President’s House, and many government buildings had been set ablaze. Seeking refuge, President James Madison rode north to a quiet Quaker village in Maryland where, for one remarkable day, Brookeville became the place from which he continued the work of the presidency.
That village was Brookeville.
The Bentley home where President Madison spent the night still stands. The village green where members of his administration gathered remains much as it was more than two centuries ago. The narrow, tree-lined streets continue to reflect the quiet character that made Brookeville a place of refuge during one of the nation’s most uncertain moments.
Today, Madison Manor is the only new residential community to be introduced on High Street within the Brookeville National Register Historic District. The collection includes four distinctive residences, each inspired by the people, places, and events that shaped Brookeville’s remarkable role in American history.
This is where history is honored and a new chapter begins.

Proportion
Every residence at Madison Manor begins with proportion. Designed by GTM Architects, the homes reflect balanced forms, thoughtful scale, and architectural compositions that feel both timeless and naturally at home within Brookeville's historic landscape.
Presence
Each residence has its own architectural identity while contributing to a unified streetscape. Distinctive rooflines, welcoming facades, generous porches, and carefully composed elevations create homes that are individually memorable while remaining harmonious as a collection.
Design
Architecture is more than appearance. It is the way a home welcomes you, the way natural light moves through its spaces, and the way each room relates to the next. Every residence at Madison Manor has been thoughtfully designed to create homes of quiet elegance, lasting character, and everyday livability.
Every community begins with land. Madison Manor begins with a vision.
This is not simply raw land waiting to be developed. It is a thoughtfully envisioned community where architecture, homesites, and planning have been carefully considered from the very beginning.
Designed by GTM Architects and approved by Montgomery County, the four residences were conceived as a unified collection that respects Brookeville’s historic character while creating an exceptional place to call home.
“You are not buying ground. You are buying the years.”
Many custom home projects begin with years of planning, design, approvals, and uncertainty. Madison Manor begins differently. The vision is already in place, allowing you to focus on what matters most: creating a home that reflects your lifestyle and the life you will build there.
For the mornings on the porch with the light coming through the trees. For the dinners on the terrace that run later than they should. For the holidays that fill every room and the slow Sundays that need no itinerary at all...
