Pleasant Hill is a historic home located near Pomfret, Charles County, Maryland, United States. It is a 2 1⁄2-story, three-bay Tidewater house constructed between 1761 and 1995. The house illustrates the characteristic pattern of homes from small one- and two-room 18th-century dwellings into the larger houses that survive today.
Pleasant Hill was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
The land on which Pleasant Hill is located was originally part of a larger tract known as Green's Inheritance. In 1713 John Spalding purchased 200 acres of Green's Inheritance for Pleasant Hill. The home was built in at least three phases.
