Houghton Hall, Grade I listed country house in Sancton, England.
The rectangular main building features a rustic basement, piano nobile, and bedroom floor, connected to two flanking wings through stone colonnades.
Sir Robert Walpole, the first Prime Minister of Great Britain, commissioned the construction of this English estate in the early eighteenth century.
The interior rooms display collections of art, antiques, and historical artifacts that reflect centuries of British aristocratic lifestyle and traditions.
Visitors can access both the mansion and its surrounding Grade II listed gardens, with parking facilities available near the entrance.
The Cholmondeley Collection of Model Soldiers, housed in the stable block, contains 20,000 miniature figures gathered since 1928.
