Mixed-use Property FOR SALE in Adcroft Street, Trowbridge, Wiltshire

Property Description

Prime 3.1-Acre Former NHS Hospital Site – Significant Residential & Mixed-Use Development Opportunity
Fraser Bond is pleased to present a rare opportunity to acquire the former Trowbridge Community Hospital site, a substantial freehold estate extending to approximately 3.1 acres in the heart of Wiltshire’s county town.
The property comprises a collection of institutional buildings, anchored by an architecturally significant Grade II listed centre block dating from circa 1857, reflecting the site’s long-standing healthcare use. Historically operating as Trowbridge Cottage Hospital and later as a district and community hospital, the asset is now entering a transitional phase, with healthcare services relocating to a new state-of-the-art facility nearby.
This shift unlocks a highly attractive brownfield redevelopment opportunity, with the scale, configuration, and established access points lending themselves to a variety of future uses. The predominantly residential character of the surrounding area, combined with strong local demand, positions the site for potential residential-led or mixed-use redevelopment, subject to planning consent.
The combination of heritage architecture, site scale, and strategic repositioning potential makes this an exceptional opportunity for developers and investors seeking value-add projects in established regional centres.
