Truman's Place is a historic home located at Hughesville, Charles County, Maryland, United States. It is a 2 1⁄2-story brick structure with a smaller two-story brick wing built in the mid-19th century. The house incorporates the brick shell of a 1770, one-story, five-bay dwelling with a kitchen-service wing. Outbuildings include a tenant house with an attached stable, a tobacco barn, a garden shed, and a three-bay garage. The home takes its name from a 1,000-acre (4.0 km2) proprietary manor grant to Nathaniel Truman in 1666.
Truman's Place was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
