Woodperry House, Grade I listed mansion in Stanton St. John, England
Woodperry House exhibits Palladian architecture with a symmetrical facade, large windows, and two pedimented wings added during the 1879 renovation period.
Built in 1728 for London goldsmith John Morse at a cost of £12,000, the house remained unfinished as Morse preferred his residence in Buckinghamshire.
The property contains an oil painting of Westminster Abbey and features architectural elements similar to Oxford's Clarendon Building designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor.
The house requires Listed Building Consent for any modifications, as its Grade I status provides the highest level of protection within England's heritage system.
The property's name derives from Old English 'wudu-pyrige', referencing a pear tree near woods where a medieval village once stood until 1540.
