Old Shute House, Grade I listed English country house in Shute, Devon, England.
The medieval manor house features thick stone walls, grand chambers, and an enormous fireplace spanning 24 feet within its architectural design.
Built around 1380 as a hall house, the property underwent Tudor expansions and partial demolition in 1785 before becoming a National Trust property.
The estate represents the evolution of English architecture from medieval times through Tudor periods, with original Gothic windows and significant renovations.
The National Trust maintains this historical residence, offering short-term holiday rentals in selected sections of the building since 2011.
The building contains one of Britain's largest surviving medieval fireplaces, supported by substantial stone buttresses and spanning an entire wall.
