The parklike gardens and grounds include sweeping lawns and a magnificent display of fine specimen trees. To the rear of the house is a pair of walled gardens. The garden nearer to the house is profusely planted and landscaped with pathways interspersing the lawns and shrub and herbaceous beds. The rear courtyard is tranquil and provides a wonderful setting for this rare and special property.
