Electric aluminium sliding gates open onto a generous gravelled driveway providing ample parking and access to the integral garage with electric roller door.

The gardens and grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped to take full advantage of the property's elevated position and far-reaching views. A paved pathway surrounds the house, while external power and water supplies add practicality.
