Outside
A gated entrance leads to off road parking and a garage with electric up and over door. There are screening hedges and mature wisteria climbing the front of the house.

The property also owns 0.7 of an acre opposite which forms part of its view to the west. Viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the property’s location and glorious gardens and grounds.

To the side is a broad paved Yorkstone terrace adjoining the kitchen and dining room and mature shrubs and trees. From here steps lead up to sweeping lawns surrounded by further mature shrubs, trees and seasonal planting, timber shed and log store.

There is an attractive circular walk through the gardens and woodland. At the top of the land is the spring feeding into a rill down to the pond. The pond is surrounded by seasonal planting, screening hedging and post and rail fencing. The land in total is approximately 2.8 acres.
