2 bed property for sale

Earls Manor Court, Salisbury SP4

This delightful and spacious two-bedroom cottage is situated within a purpose-built retirement development for the over-55s, offering a peaceful lifestyle combined with excellent on-site support and beautifully maintained surroundings. The accommodation includes two generous double bedrooms, a bright conservatory, and a private garage, making it ideal for those seeking comfort, convenience, and low-maintenance living.

Earls Manor Court is an especially attractive development, steeped in local history and character. Set within the former farmyard of a 17th-century manor house, the buildings are beautifully constructed in a traditional chequerboard of flint and stone, reflecting the heritage of the area. Accessed via a garage forecourt and an impressive archway, the development opens into a central landscaped garden courtyard, mostly laid to lawn with well-stocked borders. Each cottage and apartment enjoys its own private terrace or balcony, creating a wonderful sense of space and community.

The development is perfectly positioned within the Bourne Valley, offering picturesque riverside walks directly from the site. The village of Winterbourne Earls, together with neighbouring Winterbourne Duntsey and Winterbourne Gunner (collectively known as The Winterbournes), provides a charming village atmosphere, while the historic city of Salisbury—with its renowned cathedral, excellent shopping, and cultural attractions—is just a few miles away. The New Forest National Park is also within easy reach, and for those who enjoy the coast, Poole and Bournemouth are both under an hour’s drive.

The development is professionally managed by Cognatum Estates, a respected not-for-profit organisation specialising in retirement housing. They take care of the maintenance, repair, and insurance of all buildings, as well as window cleaning, refuse collection, and the upkeep of gardens and grounds, allowing residents to enjoy a truly carefree lifestyle. Additional benefits include a personal alarm system in each property, resident estate managers on hand for support, an on-site laundry facility, and a guest suite providing comfortable accommodation for visiting family and friends—making this an ideal “lock-up and leave” home.
