Broom's Bloom is a historic home located in Bel Air, Harford County, Maryland, United States. It is a two-story, frame and rubblestone, gable-roofed house, partially stuccoed and partially shingled. It took its present form from four distinct and discernible periods of growth, from about 1747 to about 1950. The oldest section is four bays by two, and has a hall and parlor plan, measuring approximately {{convert|36|by|20|ft}}. Also on the property is a one-story, rubblestone 18th century springhouse and a small family cemetery, which contains the earliest known grave stones in the county.{{cite web|url=https://mht.maryland.gov/secure/medusa/PDF/NR_PDFs/NR-1093.pdf |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Broom's Bloom |date=August 1991 |accessdate=2016-01-01 |author=Christopher Weeks |publisher=Maryland Historical Trust}}
