Oakland, now known as Crown Rose Estate, is a historic home and farm complex located near Petersville, Frederick County, Maryland. The house dates to the mid-19th century, and is a modified double-pile plan of two stories, with two 1 1/2-story wings, dated to 1935, extending from the sides of the house and a two-story rear ell. The front facade features a prominent portico of four Tuscan columns. Also on the property are a smokehouse, two springhouses, a cottage, a bank barn, and a Cold War-era bomb shelter.[2]
