The Castle, Castle Eden, Grade II* listed country house in Castle Eden, England
The Castle stands as a three-story mansion with a seven-bay entrance front, castellated parapet, and canted central section across 15,102 square feet.
The property, acquired by Rowland Burdon in 1758, transformed from an unenclosed estate into a grand Palladian-style mansion constructed around 1765 by architect William Newton.
The Castle represents the rise of the English gentry class, with the Burdon family members serving as Members of Parliament and High Sheriffs of Durham.
The mansion contains 11 bedrooms spread across multiple floors, with stone steps leading to an underground section that includes several chambers.
The property features a six-bayed palmhouse added in 1863 and maintains 14 acres of gardens designated as a Grade II listed park.
