GARDEN AND OUTBUILDINGS
The property can be approached by one of two directions, either by a pair of five bar timber gates which allows access to a tarmacadon drive with turning area, which also leads to a concreted additional parking area to the side of the cottage. At this point it is possible to gain access to a lean to fuel store but there is also a pathway which runs between the back of the property and the rear boundary around to the patio.The garden is divided approximately into two by a babbling brook which leads eventually to the River Monnow in the adjacent village. This is undoubtedly an attractive feature and there is also a Wisteria clad Arbor Bridge which links the paved patio area, which features a pond to the upper section of the garden. The pathway leads past an attractive Acer, Azalea and several young fruit trees, up to the far corner of the ground, where there is a useful former stone built pigs cot and a detached single garage, which itself has its own vehicular access onto the adjacent Village Lane. The garden which is undoubtedly a feature of our clients property has a charming cottage feel about it and is bounded along the roadside by high hedging, thus providing a high degree of privacy. There are several sizable trees, including two mature Willows and numerous shrubs to provide a splash of colour for virtually every season of the year. In all it extends approx to one third of an acre.
