Williams Plains is a historic home located in the White Marsh Recreational Park at Bowie in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States.

The house was built for the

Maryland Court of Appeals, who purchased the property in 1812.[2]

It is a 2+12-story brick house, with a

Greek Revival influenced trim, mantels, and paneled doors. A much lower 2+12-story wing, likely dating to 1942, projects from the northern portion of the east side. The bricks of the wing are laid in stretcher bond, and is a veneer-over-frame construction.[2]

Williams Plains was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
