The property is set back from Mays Way, with a dropped kerb providing vehicular access to a single-bay parking area laid with block paviours, leading to the detached brick-built single garage.

A paved pathway runs along the front of the bungalow, with dual access to the rear garden through two separate arched openings fitted with decorative metal gates.

The rear garden is arranged over two levels, with a lower patio area on either side of the conservatory, providing space for outdoor seating and alfresco dining. A low brick wall defines the upper lawn, which includes a further hardstanding patio to the rear left-hand corner, bordered by established shrubs. The boundaries are formed with concrete post and panel fencing, complemented by mature herbaceous borders.
Garage
The brick-built garage has a dual-pitched timber roof clad with concrete interlocking tiles and is fitted with an aluminium up-and-over vehicular door. A pedestrian access door is located to the right-hand side.
