Full Details
Step Outside
The house is approached via double wrought iron gates opening onto a private driveway with generous parking and turning area and access to the garage. The house is shielded from the road by a low level wall and mature hedges. The front garden is laid to lawn with feature low level stone wall and access to the rear from both sides. The mature, well-maintained rear gardens comprise a raised lawn with steps and slopes (for lawnmower access) to the lower lawns. The garden is edged with well-stocked borders and is fenced to the side and rear with a low stone wall running along the length of the garden separating the lower and upper lawns. The upper lawn has a number of specimen fruit trees including plum, apple and cherry. The far end of the garden is the ‘working area’ and is surrounded by hedges, ideal for a vegetable garden or a ‘hideaway’ from which to enjoy peace and tranquillity. From the patio and lawns are superb views towards the Blorenge Mountain.
