A paved seating terrace overlooks a raised lawn bordered by established planting, while additional features include a timber log cabin with power, a productive vegetable and soft fruit garden, a potting shed, and an attractive water feature created from a former wishing well.
To the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to a detached garage with power, side access, and a vaulted beamed ceiling offering useful storage potential.
