Talliston House is an ex-council house in Essex, England that has been transformed by owner John Trevellian into a miniature palace. The house is located at Talliston, Newton Green, Great Dunmow, Essex CM6 1DU, United Kingdom. Each room takes on a different theme, including a 1950s kitchen, a Victorian dining room, Cambodian bedroom and Scottish Edwardian hall.
As a child, Trevellian always wanted to live in a castle and as soon as he got his own home he set about turning it into his fantasy.
Trevellian declared that he wants to live outside of time and banned all clocks and watches from the house.
In 2014, it was reported that due to financial difficulties Trevellian was going to have to sell the house that he had spent 25 years and over £500,000 on for £350,000, but a public outcry resulted in substantial donations that allowed him to stay and continue to open the house to the public
