Notes
  • Significance: Bowling Heights is an excellent example of a high-style Victorian-era residence, exhibiting elements of Gothic Revival and Stick style design. Bowling Heights, and its twin Villa se Sales in Aquasco, are the largest and most fully expressed examples of this style in Prince George's County. Its detailing, both inside and out, is among the finest in the county. Also of interest is the chapel attached to the main house. This is an unusual remnant of the private chapels which were seen in a number of wealthier homes in Prince George's County during the era of Catholic persecution during the 18th century.
