Externally, the property is approached via a private gravel driveway providing parking for up to six vehicles. The landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully designed with low-maintenance lawns, a generous patio ideal for al fresco dining, gravelled areas, vegetable beds, and an abundance of mature shrubs. In addition, a range of outbuildings - each with an electricity supply - offers excellent ancillary space.
