Outside - The property is set in just under an acre of gardens and grounds, with a large parking area at the front, capable of accommodating multiple vehicles. To the rear, a paved sun terrace offers a perfect spot to enjoy the extensive gardens, benefiting from a southerly aspect and picturesque views of the open countryside. The gardens are primarily laid to lawn, with a small stream running along the far end, and are beautifully landscaped with a wide variety of mature shrubs and trees.

In addition to the gardens, there are two outbuildings. At the rear and attached to the house there is a substantial workshop with storage rooms which did have planning permission at one time for conversion to residential use, but this has now lapsed. The workshop also has power and light installed. To the front there is another stone-built store room (no power and light).
