Property description

The impressive Grade II listed building, which stands in a commanding position overlooking the Common and the Downs, has an interesting history. Built of Bath stone in 1837 and originally a workhouse, it became a children's convalescence home and then a school, before being converted into luxury apartments in 1998 for the English Courtyard Association. Cottages of comparable architecture were built in the extensive grounds, creating an outstanding development close to the centre of Marlborough. The historic market town of Marlborough is known for its broad High Street of timber framed buildings and The Green, with its period town houses built on the site of the original Saxon village. It is a place of enormous provincial charm and outstanding modern convenience.
