Exterior

To the rear of Beechnut Lodge is a pathway between the lodge and a raised granite wall with planting. The path leads into the generous garden with a small paved patio placed to enjoy the afternoon and evening summer sun, a large grassed area and views across neighbouring fields. There is a wooden summer house and a garden shed. The front of the garden has a mature beech hedge which gives considerable privacy whilst to the rear there is no need for a hedge, just a wooden post and rail fence that enables the rural view.

Shed:11'9" x 7'9"/3.58m x 2.36m
