The property is situated in a quiet and exclusive cul-de-sac in the popular residential area of Laverstock where there are good local shops and amenities on the doorstep.
The City centre can be reached on foot or by a regular bus service and the area is further enhanced by the fact that many of Salisbury’s top state and private schools are very close by.

The City also has extensive recreational, leisure and shopping facilities in addition to the Playhouse Theatre, a cinema and Arts Centre and the iconic Medieval Cathedral.
Apart from being conveniently close to the centre of the City, another advantage of the Laverstock area is that within minutes you can be out and about enjoying the lovely countryside that surrounds Salisbury either along the footpaths and bridleways to Laverstock Down or walking along the riverbank in either direction. Good communication links from Salisbury make the area popular with those who commute or travel regularly with the mainline railway station having fast regular trains to London Waterloo at the west country and the major A36 and A30/A303 trunk roads are nearby. Heathrow and Southampton airports are also readily accessible.

To the front of the property there is a sweeping tarmac drive and open plan lawn which leads to garaging for a number of cars.
