The gardens are a major feature of the property. They are very well stocked with many colourful plants and trees, including an Indian Bean tree.

The gardens are attractive, well established and feature a wide variety of large specimen shrubs and perennials.

The large garage/workshop is perfect for those with hobbies or to house a collection of classic cars or bikes. It could also be developed separately for other uses subject to a planning alteration with lapsed planning for a separate property, which was granted in 2018. A useful stone garden shed will be found along with the boiler shed at the rear and a useful second driveway providing additional outside space and parking.
