A path leads from the front garden to the side of the property where the main entrance is located. The path continues towards the rear garden, leading onto a paved area where steps rise to an elevated terrace with inset lighting illuminating the surrounding borders. Further steps lead to the raised sundeck with inset lighting. Beyond is an area laid to sand, ideal for games.

This clever utilisation of the terracing creates purposeful zoning to sections of the garden, while allowing for multiple view points of the Estuary.
