Gardens, land, and parking – Delightful, mature gardens, acres of protected land, and excellent private parking
The home is set in approximately 45 acres of land.

The gardens are beautifully maintained, with spacious, well-kept lawns, a wealth of mature, tall trees, leafy shrubbery, and planting, two characterful follies, and several decked areas for outdoor dining furniture and summer barbecues. The gardens will undoubtedly keep those with green fingers very happy and busy throughout the year, and the outdoor space is sure to appeal to those with children and animals. The paddocks (one with a stable) create an exciting opportunity to keep various types of animals, with the current owners having had a diverse range over the years, including rescue donkeys, ducks, and ponies, offering a unique and exciting lifestyle opportunity. There is also a large outbuilding offering extensive storage/workspace.
To the front of the house, a large driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
