The house benefits from a plot in excess of 1/3rd of an acre, with the gardens predominantly falling to the rear of the house. Extending across the rear of the property is an extensive paved terrace with steps down to a substantial lawn. The garden is south facing, enjoying sun all day long, and thanks to mature hedging and planting is incredibly private. There is more than enough space for a family to play, whilst offering scope to be further landscaped if desired. Home offices are increasingly popular these days and this could easily be accommodated if desired without compromising on garden space.
