Outside

Extending to approximately 2.3 acres (stms), the grounds have been thoughtfully maintained to provide a superb balance of formal gardens and natural woodland. Expansive lawns provide generous space for families to enjoy, while the mature planting and established trees create a picturesque backdrop throughout the seasons.

Whether enjoying morning coffee or evening gatherings with family and friends, the outside space is perfectly designed to make the most of its peaceful surroundings.

Practicality is equally well considered, with ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles, together with a useful car port providing sheltered parking and additional storage.
