The wider Gun Hill Park development has been carefully transformed into a collection of unique luxury homes, preserving the magnificent architecture and historic significance of the former military hospital whilst introducing beautifully designed contemporary living spaces. Originally constructed during the late 1870s and early 1880s as part of Aldershot’s expanding military garrison, the Cambridge Military Hospital once operated almost as a self contained town with its own water supply, drainage systems and service buildings. The Water Tower itself played a key role in supplying and regulating water pressure across the military site through a gravity fed system, making this property not only visually striking but also historically important. Today, it stands as one of the most distinctive homes within the entire development, offering buyers the opportunity to own a genuine piece of local history.
