To the front of the property is a gated courtyard which provides ample parking and where there is a concealed spring.



Double gated vehicular access leads into the gardens and grounds that extend to approximately four acres creating its very own parkland setting. Originally planted as a 'Victorian pleasure ground' with a half-acre lake that has its own stone island and the foundations for a boat house still in place and a goldfish pond with fountain. The pond and lake are currently drained but could easily be refilled and on the island is the remains of a fountain which again could be re-instated. Over the years the gardens had fallen into neglect until the current owners arrived and with hard work and determination brought them back to life. The rolling lawns are well tended and in the spring time are carpeted with snowdrops, daffodils and crocuses. The diverse and wide range of mature trees are an arboriculturist's dream from the ancient oak and two wellingtonias, to the mountain ash, cyprus and cedars, the large leaf lime, the flowering cherry and sycamores, the copper beech, yew, larch and Portuguese laurel. There are early and late flowering rhododendrons and camellias which provide a back drop of colour together with a variety of garden shrubs and plants. In a secret wooded glade is a large timber workshop/tractor store with 12 volt light system providing an ideal space for those with hobbies in mind.
