Garden and Exterior:
The garden has evolved over the years from a building site, to then having a lawn for the children to play on and ride their bikes around, to now being an easy to maintain cottage garden, a patchwork of planting and paving using reclaimed materials from a local landscaper. There are a series of seating areas for relaxing and eating. The garden also benefits from a cart lodge driveway plus 2 out houses all with power and light which could make good workspaces. The garden is larger than an average corner plot which subject to planning permission lends itself to an extension back and side to enhance what is already a lovely home. There is a further garage on an exterior block to the rear of the property, and an additional parkin space in front of the garage.
