Extending to over 12,000 sq ft, the accommodation unfolds through a series of breathtaking state rooms. The approach via the Great Courtyard sets an unforgettable tone, opening to vast parkland views and a façade of classical symmetry. Inside, the house reveals a remarkable sequence of rooms including the Tapestry Hall, Ballroom, library, drawing rooms and guest suites, each showcasing period detailing of the highest order.

The stone vaulted kitchen grounds the home with warmth and practicality. Despite its scale and significance, the house retains an atmosphere that is both stately and surprisingly intimate.

Outside, Set within 67 acres of private historic parkland, the estate overlooks Rutland Water. Roaming deer, expansive vistas and complete privacy give the sense of owning a private heritage retreat rather than a conventional residence.

Outstanding Feature: The Great Staircase and double-height hall, soaring nearly 40 feet and crowned by Gerard Lanscroon’s Perseus and Andromeda mural, the only surviving domestic murals by the artist. Comparable in significance to those found at Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace.
