Marshcourt, Grade I listed Edwardian villa in King's Somborne, England

Marshcourt exhibits chalk block walls, Portland stone details, and red brick elements across its E-shaped structure with seven wide bays.

Edwin Lutyens designed this residential estate between 1901 and 1905 for H. Johnson, incorporating traditional English architectural elements throughout the property.

The building represents a transition period in British architecture, combining classic manor designs with early 20th-century construction techniques.

The surrounding Grade II listed gardens contain multiple structures including sundials and pergolas that visitors can observe from designated areas.

The exterior walls feature clunch chalk blocks, an uncommon building material that creates strong visual patterns across the building's surface.
