LOCATION

Codford is ideal for someone wishing to enjoy the benefits of country living, in a friendly and active rural community in the unspoilt Wylye Valley, bypassed by the A36 during the early 1990’s and as a consequence now attracting little by way of through traffic although regular 'buses to Warminster and Salisbury stop nearby. Codford also has a highly regarded Primary School rated Good by Ofsted in 2023, two Churches - St Peter’s and the century’s old St Mary’s with its adjacent ANZAC Commonwealth war graves, a Doctor’s clinic, a Veterinarian practice, a Café and a Garage/Filling Station which also hosts a Budgens convenience store, whilst the village also boasts a popular theatre - The Woolstore and Wessex Internet have recently installed ultra-fast full fibre broadband in the village. Warminster 7 miles to the West has excellent shopping facilities - 3 supermarkets including a Waitrose store and a host of independent shops, cafes and eateries together with good schooling, and a wide range of other amenities which include a theatre and library, clinics and hospital, and a railway station. Rail users enjoy regular services to Salisbury, and then direct to London Waterloo, and to Bath with a direct line on to South Wales. The other main centres in the area including Westbury, Trowbridge, Frome and Salisbury are all within easy driving distance as are the various Salisbury Plain military bases. The A36, A350 and A303 trunk routes provide swift road access throughout the West Country and further afield to London via the A303/M3 whilst Bristol, Bournemouth and Southampton airports are each just over an hour by road.

The property is approached off the High Street via a gravel driveway also serving other properties.
