I’m so happy this gorgeous and historic home in Salisbury is being rejuvenated! It’s been sad through the years to watch the changes it went through and the time that it sat for so long unattended and unloved. Now it will be revived! Thanks to all involved, and congratulations to the Dixons for taking over this huge project!
