The outside space is amble and has been landscaped to create several different gardens. A former paddock approximately 1/3 of an acre, has been lovingly planted with trees and shrubs by the present vendors and is a haven for wildlife.
Situated on a raised deck in the middle of the garden, the beautiful summer house with power and lighting, offers a fabulous spot to take in the long distance views.

A charming feature of the property is the piped spring water supply, providing a sustainable and refreshing source for the garden
