About St Margaret's:
Originally built as single houses, the site was acquired by St Margaret’s and converted into a school in the 1920s, which welcomed local pupils through its doors well into the 21st century.

St Margaret’s has now returned to its original use as Exeter-based developer, Grenadier, redevelops the Grade II and Grade II* listed buildings into energy efficient homes for the area.

The redevelopment celebrates, preserves and sensitively restores features reminiscent of the eras through which St Margaret’s has evolved: Including the Georgian high ceilings with delicate coving, elegant staircases and marble fireplaces, as well as the Edwardian stained-glass windows and ornate Ironwork banisters.
