Outside Spaces That Make the Difference
What really sets this property apart is its outdoor space. The house sits on a spacious corner plot, giving gardens to the front, side and rear. Each area has been beautifully maintained, offering lawned sections, paved seating areas and mature planting that provides colour and privacy throughout the year.
Because of its orientation, the garden benefits from sunlight from morning through to evening. It's a superb environment for outdoor dining, children's play or simply relaxing after work.
To the rear, a detached double garage offers secure parking or workshop space, complemented by a private driveway with off-road parking for multiple vehicles. Two additional outbuildings provide handy garden storage or potential for a hobby room or home gym.
