OUTSIDE

The gardens are a true highlight of the property, offering a rare combination of privacy, far-reaching views and a wonderful sense of calm.

Approached from Dinton Road via a carriage driveway which provides plenty of parking for several vehicles and leads to the double garage, complete with an electric roller door, power and lighting.

To the rear, the south-westerly facing garden has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of its setting and orientation. It can be accessed from the kitchen/dining room via bi-fold doors, as well as from the sitting room and garden room, where paved terraces create ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining, all enjoying elevated views across the valley. Beyond this, a generous expanse of lawn provides a perfect area for families, while the wider gardens gently cascade in tiers, richly planted with mature shrubs and trees. A meandering pathway leads down to a stream at the lower boundary, adding to the sense of tranquillity.

ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING

As of 2017, Estate Agents are legally required to undertake Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property.
Boatwrights Estate Agents Ltd are members of The Guild of Property Professionals and therefore use a professional service called Guild 365 to facilitate these checks. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted. There is a charge for this service at a cost of £30+VAT (per person) which is non-refundable. Boatwrights do receive small proportion of this fee in order to cover our administrative costs.
