Undershaw, Victorian country house in Haslemere, England.

The red brick residence features asymmetrical architecture with large south-facing windows and stained glass panels displaying a family coat of arms.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle commissioned architect Joseph Henry Ball to build this house in 1897, where he resided until 1907 with his first wife Louisa.

The study room contains floor-to-ceiling bookshelves where Conan Doyle wrote The Hound of the Baskervilles and other Sherlock Holmes stories.

The Grade II listed building sits near the A333 road, approximately 40 miles southwest of London, and currently functions as Stepping Stones School.

The house features a two-story entrance hall with a brick fireplace and specially designed doors that swing in both directions.
