Wiltshire care home sold as long-standing owners retire

by Kirsty Kirsty

Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co, has completed the sale of Inwood House care home in Salisbury, Wiltshire.

Inwood House is located close to the centre of the historic cathedral city of Salisbury and is registered to provide care for a maximum of 20 service users. The property benefits from 20 single bedrooms, of which 19 have ensuite facilities, plenty of day space, a passenger lift, and large attractive rear gardens.

The business has been owned and operated by Alan and Diana Butchers since 2003 and was brought to market to allow them to retire.

Following a confidential sales process with Charles Phillips at Christie & Co, it has been purchased by a first-time buyer who will continue trading it as a care business. This is the second care home recently sold by Christie & Co for Alan and Diana, the other being Fairfax House in Salisbury, which completed in May 2024.

Alan and Diana Butchers, former owners of Inwood House, comment, “The sale of Inwood House marks the end of over 25 years of us owning and operating care homes, and we leave with great memories. It has been a pleasure looking after our residents in both Inwood House and Fairfax House over the years, and we will miss them all. However, we felt that now was a good time for us to retire and pass the homes on to new owners. We wish the new owners of Inwood House all the best.”

Charles Phillips, Director – Care at Christie & Co, comments, “Having been involved in Alan and Diana’s purchase of Inwood House back in 2003, we were delighted to be asked to act as agents for them in the sale of both of their care homes. A very good level of interest was expressed in Inwood House and also Fairfax House, with applicants appreciating the location and quality of the homes. The most recent sale of Inwood House demonstrates there is strong demand for care homes, and we have applicants looking for similar opportunities.”
