Parsonage or Manse

If you are talking about a parson as in a priest, then he lives in a parsonage.

Similarly, a rector lives in a rectory, a vicar lives in a vicarage. A Catholic priest usually lives in a parochial house.

"Important"bishops often live in palaces.

Manse

1. the house and land occupied by a minister or parson;

2. the dwelling of a landholder; mansion.

Origin:

Somewhere in the 1480's-90's; earlier manss,mānsus

a farm, dwelling, from the Latin infinitive manēre to dwell.
