Outside & parking

To the front of the property, a neatly maintained lawn garden is complemented by a variety of colourful shrubs and small trees, creating an attractive first impression. A tarmac driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the attached garage, which is accessed via a traditional up-and-over door. Additionally, there is also a very handy EV charging point already connected.

A pathway at the side of the property leads to the rear garden, where a spacious patio adjoins the back of the home and provides an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing whilst enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The garden benefits from a high degree of privacy and backs onto a pleasant wooded backdrop.

A raised brick wall with decorative flower beds separates the patio from a central lawn, which is further enhanced by an array of established shrubs and planting. Tall hedgerows to either side and fencing to the rear create a secure and attractive environment, providing texture, colour and year-round interest to this charming and tranquil outdoor space. A useful door from the garden also provides direct access into the rear of the garage.
