Gloucester House, Georgian country house in Weymouth, England.
The three-story residence features a double mansard roof, a pedimented portico entrance, and multiple recessed sashed dormer windows at the parapet level.
King George III resided in the right wing of Gloucester House during his recovery from porphyria in 1789, utilizing the garden and sea air for healing.
The house transformation from royal residence to hotel and later private dwellings reflects the evolution of English seaside towns through different social periods.
The lower ground floor contains a restaurant and pub named The Gloucester, while the upper levels function as private residential spaces.
The 1850 extension includes a large balcony supported by cast iron columns, adding architectural elements to the original 1780 structure.
