Chuzzlewit is a handsome semi detached cottage which has only ever been within the ownership of one family and is now being offered for sale for the first time since its construction in the 1920s. The property is located within the popular village of Alderbury which lies about 5 miles to the south east of the cathedral city of Salisbury.
