The grounds extend to approximately 4.5 acres, offering exceptional privacy and seclusion, with a southwest-facing rear garden and well-maintained lawns flowing from the patio.

Accessed via a long, tree-lined driveway, the property sits centrally on the plot with a turning area featuring a central island. The drive continues past the house to the cottage, a double garage, and a separate three-bay garage.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with an array of mature beds containing established plants and flowers. To the left side of the plot is a small woodland, and at the right time of year, there are bluebells.
