The rear garden was landscaped circa 2006 by Goscote Nurseries and boasts a vast array of architectural shrubs, plants and small trees with stylish meandering areas of pathways, timber sleepers and a wonderful seating area to the top of the garden with a surprise meandering babbling brook style water feature. There is also a further outbuilding which doubles as a utility room space with space and plumbing for washing machine, power and lighting and with part of the outbuilding having an open sided covered area perfect for alfresco dining.

Agents Note
The vendor has informed us that the property has a boarded loft and had extensive roofing work carried out to the property to ensure longer roof life security which included the use of reclaimed Welsh slates, replacement slat laths and lime rendered to the rear of the property. This home also features a modern air pressure unit which is designed to 'push out' condensation trying to make its way into the property. A particular bonus for an older home. The property benefits from gas central and heating and sash style timber framed sealed unit double glazed windows.
