Old Mansion, originally named "The Bowling Green" by the original landowners, the Hoomes family, is a historic home located in Bowling Green, Caroline County, Virginia. The house was built around 1741. The original front section is a 1+1⁄2-story, brick structure with a jerkin-head roof and dormers. A rear frame addition with a gambrel roof was added in the late 18th century.[3] The building is a private residence.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.[1] Bowling Green lent its name to the town of Bowling Green, Virginia.[4] It is included in the Bowling Green Historic District.
