Outside: A double gated entrance leads into the driveway which runs along the side of the property leading to a parking area and garage at the end. Stone walls and beech hedging bound the property with a low level retaining stone wall along the driveway with areas of lawn and mature trees. There is also a circular area of bedding plants at the front of the property with a feature stone fountain. A gate to the side leads into a further area of lawn. The former stable block has benefited from a new roof and has auto external lighting. One of the stable feed rooms has been converted to a home gym with the other stable and feed/tack room used for storage. The block has neutral décor, carpet tiles, ceiling lights, two windows and electric heating. Double doors give access into the storage shed which has a ceiling strip light and shelving. A pretty Victorian style greenhouse is set within a raised vegetable and rose garden. The full sized tennis court has recently been resurfaced along with fencing and hedging providing an entirely enclosed and sheltered area. This completes a wonderful package of outside amenities.
