Outside
The oversized garage provides a fantastic space that leads through to a workshop as well as two potting sheds, that subject to planning permission, could be considered for annexe potential.

The fantastic gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees, box hedging and large mature shrubs. The west facing patio, off the kitchen provides a plenty of space for outside dining making the most of the sun throughout the day and evening.

The wonderful garden with impressive London Plane Tree, is stocked well with perennial planting. The summer house provides entertaining space or further storage within the garden close to the nature well, which is a feature of the village the other side of the garden boundary.
