From the Wikipedia article

The Grange is a house in Ramsgate, Kent, on the south coast of England. It was designed as his own home by the Victorian architect and designer Augustus Pugin, and built between 1843 and 1844. The Grange is built in Gothic Revival style, Pugin intending it to be both a home and a manifesto for his architectural philosophy. Rescued from demolition by the Landmark Trust in 1997, the Grange is a Grade I listed building. The house is notable for its influence, being described by Historic England as occupying "a crucial place in the development of C19 domestic architecture, in planning and style", and by Pugin's biographer Rosemary Hill as "a model for the English family home that was used in various ways by three generations of architects."
