A shared driveway leads up to the front of the property where there is a private parking area surrounded by a stone wall. From here there is an elevated extensive lawned garden, sheltered by a Eucalyptus hedge, interspersed with a feature bunker, ideal for the golf enthusiast. To the side of the property a French door gives access to a south facing stone chipped seating area suitable for relaxing or entertaining. Outside the main entrance door there is a delightful shrubbery containing a superb variety of flowering plants and shrubs. From here a lawn sweeps around the west and north of the property enclosed by an attractive beech hedge. Accessed from the kitchen there is a private east facing sheltered courtyard area containing a greenhouse, a potting shed, two separate stores and log shed. It is rare to have the opportunity to purchase and enjoy the character of traditional house like this and, as such, should be viewed at the earliest opportunity.
