Pleasant Prospect is a historic home located at Mitchellville, Prince George's County, Maryland.
It is an outstanding and important example of a Federal style plantation house, consisting of a 2½-story main structure over a full basement with a 2-story kitchen linked by a 1-story hyphen.
The kitchen wing and hyphen are typical of late eighteenth century ancillary architecture in Southern Maryland.
[2] The architectural design and unique features of the house were documented in the permanent collection of the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) at the Library of Congress in 1936 and again in 1983.
This documentation notes: "Pleasant Prospect reflects the wealth and elegance of the upper class of planters in Prince George's County during the late 18th and early 19th century.
