In turn this opens to a large lobby providing the perfect boot room in which to store essential items required by busy families or for countryside pursuits.

Attractive wrought-iron gates open at the eastern side to a recently resurfaced driveway providing direct access to the attached garage, as well as off-road parking for up to three cars comfortably. The driveway dissects the plot, with a path leading north from here past a large potential vegetable garden and greenhouse, eventually linking with a second gravel driveway and range of garaging/outbuildings benefiting from its own vehicular access.

On the southern side of the property, a large raised patio spans the full width, offering a private sun-soaked spot in which to entertain and take in the wonderful views. A large landscaped garden sweeps around this part of the plot, formed from well-tended lawns, mature trees, shrubs, stocked borders and a nature pond. Completing the plot is a secluded and sheltered terrace found on the western side of the property, accessed via an external pathway or directly from the utility room.
