The property sits within an overall plot of approximately a quarter of an acre (STS), to the front of which there is a large tarmac driveway, which provides ample parking, with the front boundary enclosed by a brick wall, with five bar gate, with separate pedestrian gated access. Within the rear garden there can be found a brick and slate outbuilding which we assume is the original school toilets, but which has been arranged into a shower room, cloakroom and separate office/storeroom.

Immediately to the rear of the property there is a paved patio area with slate shingle area beyond, all of which is enclosed by lawned garden, with access to the front via either side of the property.
