South Stoneham House, Grade II* listed manor house in South Stoneham, Southampton, England.

The manor house features architectural elements designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor, including a grand entrance and multiple reception rooms spread across multiple floors.

Edmund Dummer commissioned the construction of South Stoneham House in 1708, investing £3,400 in the estate before facing bankruptcy three years later.

The property transformed from a private manor to student housing in 1920 when University College Southampton acquired it for residential purposes.

While the exterior of South Stoneham House remains visible from public areas, the building currently stands vacant and awaits future development plans.

The grounds of South Stoneham House received landscaping treatment from Lancelot Brown, incorporating mature trees and water features near River Itchen.
