“We love the spacious light split level interior which provides interesting views around the gardens and beyond.

The outside space provides private and secure gardens beyond the five bar gate and gated side entrances. The gardens provide space for social gatherings on the large decking and also a number of places to sit and enjoy the pond and upper terrace”.
