Claremont, Palladian country house in Esher, England
The rectangular mansion features nine bays with four Corinthian columns supporting a dentilled pediment displaying a coat of arms at the entrance.
Sir John Vanbrugh constructed the first house on the estate in 1708, which was later sold to Thomas Pelham-Holles, Earl of Clare in 1714.
The Gold Room contains a decorated plasterwork ceiling with gilt anthemion frieze, while the White Room displays refined low relief ceiling ornamentation.
Claremont House currently functions as an educational institution, housing the Claremont Fan Court School within its historical walls and surrounding grounds.
The central staircase receives natural illumination from above, forming a focal point within the building's architectural composition.
