The outside of this property is one of its finest features. The gardens are expansive and beautifully tended and a real credit to the current owner.
The property is surrounded with a combination of stone walls, mature trees, and hedging giving a high degree of privacy. The house is elevated above the main garden which slopes gently down to the main lawn which has a sprinkling of fruit trees, planted areas and a large feature willow tree. The rear of the garden is bordered by a gently running stream and a good sized pond with various aquatic plants. Beyond the stream there is a line of mature trees and shrubs with open fields beyond.
Moving up the gentle slope towards the house is a level vegetable and fruit garden with various planting areas including several raised beds, greenhouse (2m x 1.8m), covered fruit cage, and shed (2.2m x 3m). Further up to the side of the house is a another large lawned area with mature trees and shrubs surrounding and giving a beautifully elevated view over the main garden and countryside beyond.
