The courtyard is completely private, enclosed by mature mixed hedgerows, raised beds, ornamental shrubs, and feature planting including exotic palms, cherry trees, and silver birch. The approach is visually impressive, with an angled garage, contrasting slate-roofed veranda, and attractive walled elevations. Period-style wall lanterns and an external water tap enhance the practicality and charm of the space.

An arched brick doorway leads from the courtyard into the main garden, which wraps beautifully around the property.

A stone-walled, crazy-paved patio extends along one side-ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining.

A conservatory opens onto a large block-paved patio, perfect for flower pots, tubs, and al fresco dining. Beyond, a flagstone path runs alongside a stone-effect retaining wall, planted with deep shrubbery and anchored by a majestic weeping willow tree.

The rear garden continues towards the beck which borders the plot. A timber cabin sits in the corner with a nearby metal fuel bunker and concrete hardstanding. A second driveway with lawn and gated access from the lane also allows for additional access-subject to a right of way for Lindsey Marsh Drainage Board maintenance.
