Outside
The rear garden is formed of two distinct garden areas commencing a concrete patio area and trodden pathways which spurs to the right and proceeds straight ahead to a large pond which extends from the centre more or less to the rear boundary of the property. There are lawned areas and a huge variety of trees and shrubs throughout the garden. To the left hand boundary there is an established brick wall with a rear boundary and right hand boundary formed of timber fencing. Within the garden there is a 'Y' shaped spur which is suitable for the parking of two or more vehicles and forming a turning point. Access to this is via the open carport which is positioned to the left of the house and features double doors to the front and is ideal additionally for storage.

There is also a large strip of garden to the side of the house which extends from the front to rear boundary, upon which there is located a timber shed and greenhouse. This particular area could lend itself to a significant amount of home grown produce being the size of a small allotment. The current owners have implemented a policy of re-wilding and all in all the plot measures approximately 0.17 of an acre.
