Around 0.6 miles is Waitrose and plenty of amenities that include coffee shops, a pharmacy, a general convenience store and takeaways, ensuring that day-to-day essentials are close by. The area is also well-served by a bus into the city and healthcare facilities, including a local doctor’s surgery.

Families will appreciate the excellent schooling options available in Winchester. From primary schools to secondary schools, the area is home to some of the best educational institutions, including Henry Beaufort, Westgate, Kings, and Peter Symonds College for older students. For younger children, there are a number of respected preparatory schools such as Prince’s Mead, Pilgrims School, Twyford and Farleigh.

Winchester is 59 minutes by train from London Waterloo. The M3 motorway (junctions 9, 10 and 11) is within easy reach, making both London and Southampton readily accessible. The inter-connection with the M27 makes Southampton International Airport commutable and opens the South Coast and New Forest.
