Outside

Occupying an attractive position within this exclusive private development, the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped over a number of levels, creating a wonderful balance of entertaining areas, lawn and mature planting.

Immediately adjoining the sitting room is an impressive raised treated timber decking complete with a pergola, creating a superb setting for al fresco dining and relaxation. This terrace is framed by beautifully stocked flower and shrub borders providing colour and interest throughout the year.

To one side of the garden is an area principally laid to lawn enclosed by mature planting, whilst a paved pathway wraps around the property providing access to the side entrance. A timber storage shed, additional paved area and secure side gate provide excellent practicality.

The lawn continues around the opposite side where a further paved terrace offers another seating and entertaining area. A gravelled pathway leads to a further side gate before connecting with raised treated timber steps featuring brushed metal balustrades, rising to the elevated decking outside the breakfast atrium. This provides a wonderful elevated position from which to enjoy the gardens and complements the property’s split level design.
To the front, the property is approached via The Spinney, a private gravel driveway, with Number 4 occupying the first position on the right hand side. A generous driveway provides off road parking both in front of and alongside the garage.

A treated timber pedestrian gate opens onto a paved pathway leading to both the front entrance door and the personnel door into the garage. The front garden is principally laid to lawn with a gravelled frontage enclosed by beautifully stocked mature flower and shrub borders. Atmospheric wall mounted lighting enhances the approach, whilst a recessed area behind the garage provides ideal bicycle and bin storage.

The garage is fitted with an electric up and over door together with power and lighting, providing excellent secure parking, workshop or storage space.
