Outside

The long rear garden is mostly level and laid to grass with shrub beds beyond a paved terrace and a raised bed with doors and shallow steps from the garden room. Whilst needing attention, it benefits from a southerly aspect and leads to a single detached garage with parking at the rear; a rare advantage with such a period home in this location.
