| ENTRANCE HALLWAY | 6.27m x 2.01m (20'7" x 6'7") Such a wonderfully grand entrance into this beautiful Edwardian house. The interior of this property is as inviting as its external appearance.

| OUTSIDE AREAS | The plot to this property offers privacy, spectacular views and a garden full of adventure and pretty landscaping. The driveway is revealed via the electric entrance gates, behind which a large and useful storage shed & parking area can be found. The driveway descends to a gravelled section that can accommodate four vehicles. Whist there is some additional parking at the top of the driveway, remote controlled lighting lights up the route as it descends towards the main parking section.
The lawned area of the garden is easy to maintain and surrounded by pretty rockeries, scrambling Montana clematis and spring bulbs ready to bloom. Complete with its own Narnia-style street lamp, this is a charming and beautifully maintained garden.
To the side of the house there are discretely positioned wood sheds and stores, alongside steps leading up from the rear of the property to the top of the driveway. A large growth of rhododendrons to the rear slope makes for manageable and pretty greenery all year round - just wait for May, when the blossoms erupt!
This is very beautiful plot, easier to maintain than it might appear to the less-confident gardener.... and don't overlook the delight of winter sledging down the driveway, every once in a while! |
