OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a white painted 5-bar gate on to a shared drive leading to the block paved parking suitable for three cars. Adjacent to this is the two bay car port, with both power and lighting and also housing the OIL STORAGE TANK.A path leads around the front of the house to the canopied entrance door with frosted etched effect fan light. The gardens which are found to the rear of the property are a real delight and have been landscaped to create separate areas of interest. From the rear of the property paths lead down through the gardens to a central lawn with cider millstone and cobbled surround. To the side of this is a timber arbour creating a seating area from where one can sit and relax enjoying a view back towards the house. From here a wrought iron gate leads you through to the HEATED SWIMMING POOL having a sandstone flag surround. Trained along the walls here are a fig tree, vine and a yellow rose which add to the somewhat Mediterranean feel. Planted to one corner is also a lovely flowering cherry. There is a glazed fronted pool house/studio/home office containing a small changing room, which is an ideal place from where to host your pool parties. Passing beyond the millstone is a mini orchard containing four apple trees and two pear trees, where a 'green' path is mowed through the meadow grass. At the rear of the plot is the kitchen garden and chicken run with hen house, perfect for those looking to enjoy a taste of the 'good life'. The meadow grass leads back to the front boundary along a high clipped conifer hedge, to a 'living' willow igloo, a lovely feature and a real favourite with the grandchildren! Located within the garden is the former stables which is being utilised as a STORE ROOM 15' x 9' and WORKSHOP 20' x 16' with central workbench. Within the workshop is a cupboard housing the pool pump and cleaning materials.
