OUTSIDE
The property is approached over a tarmac driveway to a wrought iron gate with pedestrian gate to one side. Beyond the gates the driveway continues past the front of the house and garage block and turns down the side of the house. On either side of the driveway are areas of lawn with flower borders. A concrete path leads from the tarmac drive to the entrance door with storm porch over. Either side of the path are lawned areas within which are various mature trees and shrubs. The garden surrounds the property, with the main area being to the rear. There is a crazy paving terrace immediately behind the house, containing several flower beds. Steps lead down from the rear hall to a slightly lower level where there is a large lawn (believed to have originally been a grass tennis court), with mature hedges and specimen shrubs to either side. Beyond this, the gently sloping garden is mainly laid to lawn, with some flower beds, fruit bushes, mature apple trees, an attractive conifer and heather bed, and a magnificent wooden pergola some sixteen metres long with mature climbing roses. This whole area enjoys far reaching views over the valley and is enclosed by fencing and hedging, with a gate providing access to the adjoining land.
To the side of the property is a further garden area enclosed by box and leylandii hedging with a small lawn flanking mature flower beds and containing attractive shrubs. To the higher side of the lawn is a detached wooden frame Stable Block currently divided into two areas with power and light connected. Beside the stable block is a Garage Block comprising the following:
Double Garage: 19\‘ 8\‘\‘ x 18\‘ 6\‘\‘ (6m x 5.65m)
With up-and-over door, power, light and water connected. Door to:
Workshop: 18\‘ 6\‘\‘ x 13\‘ 11\‘\‘ (5.65m x 4.25m)
Velux window, power and light connected. Door to:
Mower Store: 13\‘ 2\‘\‘ x 10\‘ 9\‘\‘ (4.02m x 3.27m)
With up-and-over door with power and light connected.
Adjoining the Garage Block is an attractive uPVC double glazed Sun Room enjoying stunning views over the garden to countryside beyond. Sliding patio doors give access to a hardstanding area, ideal for patio table and chairs, which in turn leads to the garden. Polycarbonate roof, wall lights, power points and fitted carpet.
Behind the stable block and garages is a vegetable plot and detached aluminium framed Greenhouse and nearby compost heap.
THE LAND
Approximately 5.2 acres of pasture land can be found to the side and rear of the property. The land is gently sloping and enclosed to all side by mature hedges and has independent access from the parish road through a five bar metal gate. To the top of the field are two detached outbuildings. One is wooden framed and currently used as storage while the second is part stone with an attached wooden lean to currently used as a field shelter.
