The Property occupies an enviable position on the street with a huge amount of kerb appeal.

A block paved driveway flows down the side of the property providing off road parking for two-three vehicles at the front, whilst solid timber high-level gates and a pedestrian gate leads to the rear Garden. As you pass through the gates, the driveway leads through the landscaped Garden by the property with a deep planted border to one side and as the driveway flows up to the Car Port and Garage there is also additional parking for several vehicles. 

The South-West facing rear Garden truly is a gardener’s paradise and has been a labour of love for the current owners. As well as established mature gardens, the Garden is designed to be a considered social space for the whole family to enjoy and there is a wealth of opportunity with the stone-built Outbuildings. By the Property there is a tiered landscaped area with low level stone walls, manicured bushes, established plantings and timber brace and latch doors provide access into the Outbuildings. There is an ideal entertaining area with an Indian Sandstone patio and a mature hazelnut tree making for a serene place for outdoor seating and the driveway flows around this space to the Car Port and Garage.

Steps lead up from the front section of the rear Garden to the rear main garden area that has been professionally landscaped with various areas to enjoy for the whole family. The French doors of the Entertaining Barn lead out onto the timber constructed seating area with a timber pergola covered with a mature grape vine, whilst a high-quality timber framed gazebo with lightweight tiled roof provides a covered dining and BBQ area. Behind the gazebo is a further gravelled seating area and to the rear of the Garden there is an additional raised timber seating area, perfectly designed to catch the sun throughout the day. In addition to this the mature gardens include an array of mature fruit trees, established plantings and a high-level fence and gate at the rear provide access to the fields beyond, ideal for those countryside walks with the dog.
