Outside
Richmond House is a substantial property occupying a corner position and set back from the road behind a block-paved in-and-out driveway. The property is constructed of characterful brick under a tiled roof, with a double garage of the same construction, featuring an electric door, set to one side. The front garden comprises lawn, with mature shrubs and trees providing a leafy outlook.

A timber pedestrian gate, set between a brick wall, leads to the side and rear gardens. The gardens wrap around the property and are bordered by mature hedging, providing privacy and a particularly lovely, leafy outlook. To the south-western side, a spacious terrace beneath a canopy provides a wonderful spot for al fresco dining, beyond which the lawns slope gently away, with a spectacular willow tree providing a lovely focal point. Paved pathways provide access to the garage.

To the rear, elevated lawns are bordered by low walls and thoughtfully planted shrubs, providing structure and interest. Paved terracing offers further space for seating and al fresco dining, while steps ascend to an elevated deck with an attractive wooden outbuilding comprising a sauna room and hot tub, creating a fabulous place to relax and enjoy the gardens.
