The Location:
The property lies in a private road to the east of the city centre which has for many years been a most sought-after position due to the individual properties. Many residents commute to London taking advantage of the scenic route over St. Giles's Hill to the mainline station in a little over a mile. The city can be approached via the same attractive wooded pathway which takes you to the base of St. Giles's Hill where there are quality restaurants including The Chesil Rectory and Black Rat. Similarly, within minutes you can be on the South Downs Way, St. Catherine's Hill or The Water Meadows.

Directions:
From King Alfred statue at the foot of the High Street exit the city over the river and turn right into Chesil Street. At the brow of the hill turn left into East Hill and at the fork in the road keep left into Quarry Road. Turn left onto Stratton Road where the property will be found on left hand side.
