A HOUSING developer has released new images of what a 86 homes near Salisbury District Hospital will look like.

The 13-acre site off Odstock Road was acquired after Bellway secured planning permission from Wiltshire Council in October 2024.

The first homes at the Spirewood Grange development went on sale on Saturday (July 26).

Now, new computer-generated pictures show the open space and a range of house styles.

Bellway Wessex sales director Graeme Cole said: “These new images give a flavour of what our new development will look like and the wide range of homes we have planned.

“The location has so much to offer, being within easy reach of the city centre, which is a little over a mile away. With landscaping and open space designed as part of the development and views of Salisbury Cathedral in the distance, it is going to be a desirable and attractive place to live.

“It’s also less than half a mile to Salisbury District Hospital, which makes Spirewood Grange a great spot for anyone who works at the hospital and wants a relaxing place to live with an incredibly easy commute.”

The development will be made up of 86 homes consisting of 52 properties for private sale and 34 designated as affordable housing, alongside public open space and play areas.

The private homes are two, three and four-bedroom houses and the affordable homes are one-bedroom apartments and two and three-bedroom houses.

As part of Bellway’s planning agreement for the scheme, the homebuilder has committed to investing £240,000 towards an off-site biodiversity scheme. It will also provide bat roosting features, swift bricks, bee homes and hedgehog access holes.

Bellway will also make a £208,464 contribution to the Salisbury Transport Strategy, as well as paying £157,698 towards early years education; £54,900 for a multi-use games area at Churchill Gardens; £10,000 towards enhancing the existing footpath between the site and the A338; £10,000 towards the installation of real time information at nearby bus stops; and £25,800 for public art.

The site contains prehistoric and Anglo-Saxon remains, which Bellway says will be preserved in situ in a large area of green open space to the south of the development.

The houses are initially being sold from the sales office at Bellway’s St Mary’s Hill development in Blandford St Mary, Dorset.

A sales centre is due to open on-site at Spirewood Grange in October and the first homes are due to be ready for residents to move into in March.
