On the south side of the house there is a beautifully tended central lawn partly shaded by a mature Apple tree and a charming patio which sits against the house and enjoys the scent of an establish Honeysuckle. A nearby Fig also takes advantage of the warmth of this position. These are gardens that will attract those looking for that little extra space and privacy so hard to find in a town position.
