At the rear, through a 5-bar gate there is an area of off-street parking for 4-5 cars, a double garage with pitched roof and scope to convert into a large 1-bed annexe (stpp) & a covered wood store to one side, bordered by mature hedging. This leads through to the main part of this very private garden, which is circa 135 ft in total, mainly laid to lawn with a selection of mature trees, shrubs, flower borders & a good size patio to the rear of the house.
