A wrought iron gate opens to a side pathway and to the rear of the property.

The rear garden has been interestingly landscaped making use of the topography of the plot. By the house, there is an area of patio with useful outhouses off, one providing dry storage with light and electricity and space for a tumble dryer, one for other storage and one a WC. Steps rise to a larger level patio area with shed, and steps rise again past deep tiered planted borders to a further level area housing a greenhouse. Beyond here steps make their way up a steeply sloping area of garden laid to lawn with occasional shrub planting. From the top of the garden, superb views are gained back over the village and surrounding countryside. The garden offers any new owner the challenge to use their imagination for further landscaping as desired.
