Windsor Court is a large house in Wick Lane, Englefield Green, Egham, Surrey, England. It adjoins Windsor Great Park. HistoryThe 37,000 sq ft house was built as Park Close in about 1900 in an eclectic mix of styles, most notably Arts & Crafts.[2][3] It has ten bedrooms, ten bathrooms and 5 reception rooms.[4] The estate includes 15 acres of mature gardens, cottages, stables and a large dower house.[5] Park Close was owned in its early years by the civil engineer and politician Urban Hanlon Broughton as his summer residence.[2] In 1930, his widow Mrs Urban H. Broughton was still living there and at 37 Grosvenor Square, London.[6] In 1949, it was home to Norman Greenlees Weir.[7] In 2004, it was bought for £8 million, by "resolutely anonymous" owners, but they apparently never moved in or did any work on the house, except to rebrand it as Windsor Court.[2] In April 2015, it was listed for sale at £19.9 million, having been reduced from £25 million.[3] As of February 208, it is still listed for sale at £19.9 million.[4][8] According to The New York Times, the house could be refurbished, but is "more likely to be knocked down and replaced".[3] References1. ^Ordnance Survey, 1935.
