GARDEN AND OUTBUILDINGS:
The garden extends very approximately to about one acre in area and is relatively easy to maintain with the aid of a ride-on tractor, being relatively level and laid to lawn. It is in our view ideal for a boisterous family. The entrance to the property can be gained via two routes, one via the old wrought iron hand gate loacted by the junction of Catbrook Road with Ninewells Lane, while the second is off the latter lane, via a gravelled driveway and turning area, more than sufficient in size for the parking of a handful of vehicles etc. On the right as one heads towards the residence, is a substantial STORE 11' x 9' very approximately, which has been insulated and was the former office when the property was undergoing restoration. It has both water and electrical supplies. There is a trellis screen virtually surround it which serves the useful purpose of providing a recycling and refuse area, etc. The hedgerows surrounding the property itself are varied and well established and include both evergreens and deciduous, while close to the hand gate with its planted stone wall are a number of colourful shrubs which provide a splash of colour for virtually every season of the year.
