Charles Grahame, for whom the home is named, was associated with Frederick Calvert, 6th Baron Baltimore, through Grahame's brother, David Grahame (who married Calvert's cousin, Charlotte Hyde), and with Thomas Johnson, the first elected governor of the State of Maryland, through Grahame's son (who married Johnson's daughter).[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1]
