Broomhill Farmhouse has a large garden, dissected by the private driveway and original “estate railings”. In front of the house there is a paved area with the front lawn extending to the property boundary adjacent to the public road. This area contains mature trees and shrubs including a mature Monkey Puzzle tree. There is another paved/patio area east of the house and opposite the double kitchen window which (subject to consents) could be opened up to give direct access to this area for outside dining/entertaining.

On the other side of the driveway there is a large lawned area, enclosed by a beech hedge. There is evidence of an old kitchen garden here and there are several fruit trees. This is an attractive flat and free draining area suitable for many leisure uses.

Furthermore this area extending to approximately 0.3 acres/0.12Ha provides the potential option for the purchaser to build a separate dwelling subject to statutory consents – further information can be obtained from the selling agents.
