Beautiful House but where is it?

[Mike in Cumbria]

More seriously, none of my searches have come up with anything useful. Yes, it's a lovely big family house but not really big enough to get into the manor house/notable building category. If  it still exists, I doubt whether there are any images on the internet, but it would be great to be proved wrong.

I agree Mike. I hope that as it is a bit more modest, that it has survived. I can't see much that gives clues as to the location though.

Perhaps a builder would know what type of brick was used in the building of the house.

I doubt it.

(I am not sure that it is brick.)

On the other hand, building materials can give good clues to the general area. Can anyone hazard a guess as to the kind of stone? Limestone? And slate for the roof?

...Note the different chimney stack styles. Does this mean that the plainer built ones face the back or side of the house and the slightly more decorative ones face the front for "show", or might it mean that this part of the house is of a newer construction? The fancier stacks are in groups of two or three and look to be built on an angle. I was wondering if the front if the house may be completely different style wise? 

Brick for the chimney stacks, and I'd agree that possibly they went to town a bit on the ones that were more visible from the front. But I'm a bit intrigued by the left hand chimney stack. It's in a much darker brick, and there aren't any pots on top. Why?

It looks like limestone to me, or a light coloured sandstone. The blocks are very regular in size.

And yes, slate roof and brick chimney stacks.

This probably won't be of any help but flat land and limestone could be Lincolnshire.

I reckon that this is the side of the house ... no imposing front door, portico, garden beds.

Instead I see a plain but well mown lawn (with dozing dogs), a blank wall with chimney stack, and a titchy conservatory...

I'm ready for that Pimms

Thanks for your interest and comments both amusing and informative...I can't see me getting out the Pimms anytime soon though

Good afternoon,

The grass has it been identified.

Yes, it's definitely grass.

For those watching in black and white, the grass may be green. .

Carol, there are quite a lot of similarities with the 'Rightmove' house .... Particularly windows, and possibly construction materials.

I would say not the same house, the views shown do not match  so would be the other side of the rightmove house. Looking on street view it doesn't have trefoil windows on the other side but flat topped ones as the bit on the right has in photo. Also has a large gravel drive looking on satelite.

The stone used is regular dressed in brick shape and size, not sure what they call them.

Thanks John for the heads up on the colour of the grass as I thought it was brown 
I think we had already decided that the house wasn't right but I thought there were similarities in the brick and tile department 
1252 views and no match...oh well, it has been fun
