Impressive mansion for sale in Nottinghamshire was designed by Buckingham Palace architect

Many of us dream of living like royalty, but the truth is that very few people get to actually experience that exclusive life. 

Besides the obvious perks like wearing fancy crowns, mixing with celebrities and not having to worry about getting a proper job, it’s fair to say the Royal Family have it good with regards to housing. 

From Clarence House to the Sandringham Estate, the Royals have plenty of places to choose from across the country. 

The most famous Royal residence is, of course, Buckingham Palace.

The original building dates back to 1705 but the palace as we know it, with its iconic u-shape design, was built in the 19th century upon the instruction of King George IV. 

One of the architects involved in the re-design of Buckingham Palace was Derby-born Edward Blore. 

Blore, who also worked on London’s St James’s Palace, was one of the most well-regarded architects of his time. 

Despite his notoriety, Blore returned to his native East Midlands where he designed Kingston Hall in Kingston-on-Soar. 

Built in 1842, the grand country mansion was built for Lord Belper, a wealthy Whig Party politician. 

In 1977, the mansion was subdivided into separate apartments - one of which has just been listed on the market. 

With a very reasonable asking price of £675,000 the four-bedroom home within the Grade II listed hall spans four floors. 

Enclosed within a private courtyard with a jacuzzi, the home is surrounded by 16 acres of picturesque parkland.

The lucky new occupants will have access to part of the basement, which hosts a bar area. 

The main bedroom suite boasts a freestanding bath, walk-in wardrobe, and three-piece en-suite shower.
