OUTBUILDINGS AND GARDEN:
The property stands in a garden which extends very approximately to 3/4 of an acre. The property is approached via a tarmacadam drive of generous dimensions with a turning area which leads to the INTEGRAL GARAGE 22' long x 19' 1 wide with excellent overhead storage. Electrically operated insulated main door. Contained within the recess close to it is the Ideal Mexico gas central heating boiler. There is also an emergency petrol driven (Honda) electricity generator which is connected to the electrical supply of the house. Also included is power and water. Rear pedestrian door leading to garden. Immediately to the rear of the reception area there is a paved area of generous dimensions which allows access to the side steps leading back up to the utility area. However, at the foot of this is a most useful STORE AREA 11 x 9 approx. with electric lighting and water. The garden has been very attractively laid out with terraced areas, some planted with a variety of Heathers and other colourful shrubs to provide a splash of colour for every season of the year. A substantial percentage of the garden is laid to lawn which can be maintained by the use of a ride on tractor or using one of the many gardeners that are in the area. The result of our Client's labours after many years of virtually restocking the garden is that it is a colourful sight to see and is a beautiful setting in which to sit at the end of the day as the sun goes down with views of the Sugarloaf which is some 20 miles away. To the West side of the house there is a lawned area which facilitates the lawn tractor which is flanked to one side by a slight of steps back up to the main entrance.
