Outside & parking

The home from the front is an attractive, modern red brick design under a tiled roof. The driveway has been freshly laid in front of the house with stone cobble paving installed in 2024, presenting a path leading up to the front door, while a tarmac section of driveway lies in front of the garage. This is accessed via traditional 'up and over' door and is connected to power and light. In total, the drive allows space for at least three vehicles.

At the side of the home, access is provided to the rear via a pedestrian gate which leads round to a newly laid limestone patio that adjoins the back of the property itself. Here there is also a door into the back of the garage and the patio makes for a pleasant, sociable space. Benefitting from a directly south facing aspect, no.15's garden has plenty of further potential. The area is otherwise mostly laid to lawn, with a couple of small established trees and bordered with fencing - anyone green fingered could re-create a wonderful outside space here.
