Montrose is a historic home located at Clarksville, Howard County, Maryland, United States. It was built in 1844 by Dr. William H. Hardey, prominent physician and secessionist in the American Civil War. One of Dr. Hardey's six children married John Randall, brother of James Ryder Randall, the author of "Maryland, My Maryland!" The house is basically a five-bay-wide, two-bay-deep, and 2 1⁄2-story stone structure with two dormers set into the gable roof on its south elevation and wide brick chimneys set into its east and west walls. A shingled 1 1⁄2-story cottage lies north of Montrose with barns and outbuildings lying northwest of them both.[2]
Montrose was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]
