estate house
Grand country residence
An estate house is the main residence on a large landed property, typically a grand or stately home surrounded by extensive grounds.
The term emphasizes both the dwelling and its relationship to the surrounding land—gardens, farms, or forests that comprise the estate: The estate house had been in the family for six generations.
Distinguished from a simple mansion by its connection to acreage rather than urban wealth.
