OUTSIDE
The property sits at the head of an extremely substantial plot measured to be in the region of 0.80 acres or thereabouts.

The driveway parking area is laid to gravelling and is accessed from the front right corner of the plot with a further driveway leading to the outbuildings at the rear and access is via a five bar gate to both. The plot includes several garden areas with a lawned space to the left hand side of the property having hedging and trees to border, beyond which is a woodland area which makes up the majority of the surrounding plot. There is a pathway with granite cobbles leading from the property and gently sloping away through the woodland to the outbuildings and further garden space beyond. Through this area a stream meanders which enters the property on the front right corner of the plot and exits to the bottom left.
The aforementioned foot of the plot (at the rear of the summerhouse) features a further garden space which is given over mainly to a grassed area with a mixture of hedging and dry stone walling and has previously been used as a vegetable plot enjoying an open field aspect to the rear.
OUTBUILDINGS
The outbuildings are substantial and include a timber summerhouse with a walled garden to surround, fishpond and a Beech hedge opens to a further plot at the rear.
There is a three bay 1.5 storey building with double doors accessing the two outer bays and a stable style split door to the centre with mezzanine storage running across the whole of the building, internal and external lighting and power. There is a parking space surrounding this outbuilding leading in from the driveway. This building offers huge scope for substantial garaging or storage and couple potentially be converted to residential space for external offices or perhaps an annex subject to consents.
