The rear garden is a particular highlight, enjoying an elevated position that takes full advantage of the spectacular views across the Blackmore Vale. There is excellent potential to create a wonderful terrace for outdoor entertaining, leading to a mature garden interspersed with flower beds and a variety of established plants. The lawn slopes down towards an adjoining field, providing an idyllic spot for a summer house or garden cabin, perfect for relaxing and soaking in the far-reaching views.
