The front garden is accessed via a metal gate with steps down to a pathway leading to the main entrance to the property. Lavender beds and a mature fuschia bush promise colour and fragrance as the seasons change. The front and side gardens are both lawned.

The delightful south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to incorporate a large painted wooden deck with balustrade which is the perfect place to sit and enjoy lazy spring and summer days.
