From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stud House is an early 18th-century house in the centre of Hampton Court Park near Hampton Court Palace.[1] It is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.[2] It was traditionally the official residence of the Master of the Horse.[3] The former stables at the house are separately listed, also at Grade II.[4] The Stud House was built in the 18th century and was altered and expanded between 1817 and 1818.[2]

Stud House was bought by the Russian publisher Evgeny Lebedev in 2007.[5] Its gardens were featured in the 2017 book The Secret Gardeners by Victoria Summerley and photographer Hugo Rittson Thomas.[6]
