Outside, the enclosed garden continues to impress, with a manicured lawn and flower-filled borders providing a haven of peace and tranquillity. There is a lovely patio area by the main house with plenty of space for a table and chairs, perfect for alfresco dining. At the top end of the garden there is a purpose-built office, with its own small patio where you can sit and soak up the evening sun, whilst enjoying far reaching views over the Itchen Valley and Winchester in the distance. To the front of the property is another small garden with a mature hedge providing a good amount of privacy and, for those with green fingers, there is also a vegetable garden, where you can enjoy growing your own fruit and veg.
