The conservatory leads to a lovely wraparound terrace providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor entertaining. There is ample space for barbecue gatherings, dining, and lounge furniture. The summer house is currently used for storage but could be repurposed as a pleasant hideaway to enjoy a good book and a glass of red, or a playhouse for children or even a home office perhaps. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, peppered with mature specimen trees including Worcester apple, Cedar, Acer and Parottia Persica which has beautiful Winter flowering. It offers a delight of colour and fragrance all year round – in Spring the garden is full of violets and daffodils and with Buddleia and Roses offering a delight of colour and fragrance and the specimen trees make a splendid display of Autumn colour.
