Garden and Grounds
Tucked away from the road, with a mix of lawn, patio and decking, the outside spaces to 8 Abbotsgate are as versatile as the inside.
A single garage offers additional parking alongside the space on the driveway. Steps lead down to the front of the home, where a patio area, sweeping around the side of the home, is ready to be enjoyed.

Take a seat at the table and chairs to soak up the sunshine. Beautifully landscaped, it's an area to enjoy your morning coffee and relax. Steps lead down to two further seating areas and a manicured lawn, perfect for stretching your legs or lazing about on long weekends.

The decked area, seamlessly connected to the kitchen, becomes the stage for alfresco dining and entertaining. Picture warm evenings, friends gathered around, laughter filling the air as you light up the barbeque.
