The house is approached via a front garden with a paved area with shrubs and trees, and a shingle area providing parking for one car. The rear garden is very well landscaped with a large paved terrace and characterful aged sleepers separating the terrace from the raised lawn. Garden storeroom.
A path leads to one side of the garden to an additional area of “secret” garden, which is an unexpected sanctuary with vegetable patch and a raised planter.
The studio/office is a recently installed detached building with a small deck to the front and is a perfect office base to work from home. There is underfloor heating and wifi/telephone lines to the house.
