Wonderfully private rear garden, that is bigger than the generous size it first appears to be! Laid to lawn, the garden very gently slopes in a North-Westerly direction, and reveals a Summer house mid-way down the garden. The garden is blessed with sunshine throughout the day, whether you take to the terrace at the front of the property in the morning, or the raised South facing stone terrace just off of the conservatory. The garden has been delightfully maintained, with mature borders throughout.
The driveway is accessible through a five bar wooden gate that provides off street parking for several vehicles. There is access from here to the main house and all outbuildings.
