The garage has an up and over door at the front, offering vehicle access. It benefits from both lighting and power.

Outside there are lovingly cared for front and back gardens, which are a real asset to the property. The front garden is adjacent to the driveway, which offers off road parking for multiple vehicles. Mature shrubs and trees alongside a shaped front lawn offer an attractive frontage. A side gate leads down a generous pathway along the side of the house, where there is also ample room for bin storage. The path opens into the delightful back garden, with a variety of different areas with much to offer. A large patio at the back of the house provides a generous space for sitting, barbecues, or dining outside. There is a lawn divided by a path that leads to the back of the garden, and a further raised seating area. The back garden also benefits from a summer house, and a wide variety of mature planting and trees, including beautiful roses and fruit trees. The delightful summer house offers a multitude of possibilities, such as a den, studio, potting shed or outside storage. The back garden is completed by a secluded and walled area adjacent to the conservatory, previously used as a quiet sitting spot but a perfect space to create something new.
