The property is of brick construction under a slate roof with far reaching views of the dockyard and beyond. 9 College Road is set in this historic and secure location, which is understood to be the most complete dockyard of the Age of Sail and notable as where Vice-Admiral Lord Nelson's flagship, HMS Victory was designed and built. Now a fascinating maritime museum, it features many restored ancient buildings, scheduled monuments and a diverse range of local businesses from ropemakers, joiners and blacksmiths to software companies and solicitors.

The accommodation is arranged over four floors with a secluded walled courtyard garden to the rear and double garage and parking to the front.
