Outside
South Cerney House enjoys a commanding position at the heart of this desirable village, set behind high stone walls and an inviting electric gated entrance with mature trees all around the well secluded boundary. The grounds amount to about one acre and include expansive lawned gardens, beautifully landscaped borders and a large terrace spanning the back of the house with a favourable southerly aspect. The gardens also include a number of fantastic leisure amenities, including an all-weather padel tennis court, a basketball court and a hot tub set within the terrace. To the front there is a sizeable gravel driveway with parking for several cars.

The property has previously benefitted from planning permission to erect a triple garage with alternative entrance; however, this has since lapsed.
