Tower Court is an exceptional new country house set within the wooded landscape of Ascot, conceived and delivered as a modern English Baroque residence of rare ambition and craftsmanship. Designed by ADAM Architecture, the project translates the grandeur and formality of tradition into a contemporary home of enduring elegance.
Key features:
- Architectural Style: A faithful expression of the English Baroque tradition, characterised by a dominant central block, grand temple-front portico, formal symmetry, and elaborate stone detailing that evokes the great country houses of the early 18th century.
- Materials: Constructed in Anstrude French limestone, giving the building a unified, luminous quality and a sense of permanence rarely achieved in contemporary residential architecture.
- Landscaping: The house is positioned within 50 acres of designed landscape, with sweeping lawns that emphasise its axial approach and enhance the formality and grandeur of the overall composition.
- Planning & Layout: The design is organised around symmetrical wings, establishing a clear architectural hierarchy that reinforces the classical composition. It creates long internal vistas, balanced elevations, and a sense of procession that reinforces the Baroque character.
Tower Court stands as a testament to Bath & Bath’s commitment to creating extraordinary homes, combining authentic classical design, masterful craftsmanship, and a landscape setting that elevates the architecture to its fullest expression.
