Totalling around 1 ½ acres, the majority of the lawns surround the property to both the side and rear. Various mature trees still remain although many have been removed although in many cases, the timbers have been sawn and retained for future projects. There are areas of vegetable patches and several patio/seating areas both nearer to the property and further to the end of the gardens. One such area also houses a summerhouse which also has power connected. To the front, a Folly has been created as the main pedestrian access. This more formal area has a path continuing down to the front entrance with lawns either side and lower-level shrubbery surrounding.<br />Accessed from the kitchen, a side patio exists, enclosed to the front with a newly created, solid wall with gated accesses set within.

“Orchard Cottage”
A former, tack room and stables that used to serve the Vicarage, this building has had several, main parts of its restoration completed. This has left an enclosed area which is certain to be ideal for several different purposes. Measuring around 1000 square feet in total and set over 2 floors, it benefits from having its own power and lighting with drainage situated close by. Attached to the rear, a veranda and seating area has been created with the oak beams having been harvested from trees from within the grounds.

Agents Notes:
The property has a private drainage system and has oil central heating. <br />
