Front Garden

The front garden is modest and welcoming, with a path leading gently to the front door. A second pathway curves around the side of the property, offering direct access to the rear.

The wrap-around layout gives the home breathing space — a rare and valuable feature that opens up possibilities for landscaping, extension, or simply enjoying the extra elbow room.

Rear Garden

Bathed in sunlight from morning to evening, the back garden is one of the home’s most defining features — a generous, open space with uninterrupted views to the hills beyond.

It’s not just a garden — it’s a lifestyle.
Whether you imagine wildflowers, a vegetable patch, summer evenings with friends, or quiet mornings with coffee and sky — this is a space full of promise, peace, and possibility. It’s the key to what makes this home special.
