I'm working on a project requiring a huge (modernized) victorian manor house. I need a kitchen, bedrooms, library, study, parlor etc.
Theme is along the lines of Haunting of Hill House, Bly Manor etc.
Can you please recommend some great models for this? Are there any bundles or large premade sets which could help?
Thank you!

...I've been wanting a nice large English country manor like the one in the Netflix series for a long time to use in my stories as well. .
Even the ones I find on the pro sites are no where near as expansive and classy looking as the one in the series.
Even if one was done like the old Dream Home in segments over time I'd be happy.
Crikey, if I had the modelling skill I'd just create one styled after Waddesdon Manor as the noble character in the stories is a bit on the eccentric side.
How about?

I searched my library and have a list, some might be good if you do a close-up only. Finding rooms and architecture on the scale of those sets is limited.

(This may seem an odd suggestion, but the quality of detail and turn of century 19th to 20th aspect may fill some needs.)

Many of the PAs of my suggestions have a wide range of offerings that might fill in some gaps for you. Don't forget there are some great shader sets in the store now that could change the look of the rooms to be more period.
Wow these are really beautiful, thank you for the suggestion!
This is really helpful, thank you for so many suggestions. It is challenging to find several locations that all fit together and with the theme.
Not huge, but definitely worth getting

I did some more research and found a link to a site that shows the outside and rooms from the first Netflex series. I agree with the author of that site, don't watch just before bed. https://hookedonhouses.net/2018/10/29/haunting-of-hill-house-bisham-manor/
When I told my flatmate about this, he pulled up the original 1963 movie that is a B&W. The flatmate does watch these all day and into the night. He knew exactly what I was talking about.
This is an option for the exterior: https://www.daz3d.com/albert-mansion
Also this: https://www.daz3d.com/the-streets-of-old-london. There is not a mansion, but there are a number of large Victorian era buildings that could be arranged together to form a mansion. Likewise you could use some buildings from https://www.daz3d.com/the-streets-of-steampunk.
French, but about the right era is this mansion (chateau): https://www.daz3d.com/le-manoir-abandonne
Also: https://www.daz3d.com/manor-house.
There are a lot more suitable interiors than exteriors, many of the links of which have been posted above.
Some very useful items posted thank you. Yes that show "Haunting" gets pretty scary but the house is absolutely beautiful!
I'm starting to think if I'm going to take this project very seriously, may need to try importing some Kitbash 3d stuff though have heard that has issues of its own.
If you're going to use Kitbash3D stuff, you'll want to use something like Cinema4D or (maybe) Carrara as a middle-man importer -- from the Kitbash3D formats to the middleman importer, export from that to Collada, import from Collada to Studio. Otherwise, you can wind up with one huge item that you have to figure out how to split apart, and while it's technically doable in Studio, it's an incredible pain, because of the size of the scenes. There's also the issue that the materials may or may not translate correctly -- the Kitbash3D stuff I've used has generally needed all the materials reapplied, because they somehow get detached in translation.
That said, everything I've seen at Kitbash3D is exteriors, and I've never seen anything that's particularly like the sort of mansion you're talking about -- though, to be sure, I haven't looked for that kind of thing. (Also, they are notably MUCH more expensive than Daz3D.)
What exactly is the approach you're taking? Is it actually a Victorian period project, people and clothes and everything? A Victorian-era mansion, but modern people and furnishings? A well-kept manor, or something more decrepit? What you need will dicate which of these work best for you.
..wow, some nice sets but those are a little bit rich for my budget.
That is some good info! Whoah, a lot of steps for importing those items...
So I'm working on a visual novel that is a modern (1990s) ghost story about an inhabited victorian mansion which is in use and operated by an aristocrat and their staff.
With that in mind, I'm mostly making interior scenes but I can just as easily move a scene outside if needed. The problem I'm finding is that most set pieces are too heavily distressed for an inhabited and upkept manor.
I love the "Rural Chateau"1-3 made by Jack Tomalin. There are three wonderful rooms which fit perfect together. And a few furnitures are included...

Fun to see this article on haunted Victorian mansions used Albert Mansion as its header image.
...I actually have a lot number of Jack's iterior sets including Rural Chateau Bundle as well as The Library, Baroque Grandeur, Anderson Hall and Vestibule, The WInterblack series (sans for the Throne Room add on) and the Rosemill Moor series. I also have some of the old Redhouse Studio sets like the Study, Ballroom, and Haunted Mansion..
What I need is an a large eccentric manor for exterior scenes like the one further up on this page.
