The greenhouse is at the rear with more mature trees at the side and a picket fence separates a kitchen garden at the far end of the garden. The substantial cast iron street-lamp will remain at the property by a patio before the summer house.
By the main patio there is another area ideal for outdoor furniture and alfresco dining with a timber decked surface, remote control lighting and shaped pergola with trelliswork for climbing plants.
