Situation

Lansdowne Avenue forms part of the highly popular residential area of St Cross which lies to the south of the city in a Conservation Area. The property is situated a short distance from all the amenities of the cathedral city including first class shopping within the pedestrian precinct, recreational and cultural facilities. There is an excellent selection of schools for all ages, both private and state, and the main line railway station with a service to London Waterloo is approximately 1 mile away. There are delightful walks within the area through the cathedral close and along the banks of the River Itchen and the water meadows to St Cross Hospital and up to St Catherine's Hill. Access can easily be gained to the M3 motorway at junctions 10 or 11, the M3 in turn providing connections to the A34 and M27 coastal motorway which gives access to the New Forest and Southampton International Airport.

Outside the front gardens have been landscaped with a central pathway leading between shrubs and flower beds. This in turn carries on down the side of the property and on to the rear garden. Directly adjacent to the rear of the house is a paved patio area which extends onto the rear and is secure on all sides with close panel fencing.
