Outside

The property is accessed via a track owned by the Forestry Commission, to which the property has full rights, providing a wealth of parking. The track leads to a detached double garage, from where two pedestrian gates provide entry to the grounds. One of these gates opens to a charming tree-lined walkway bordered by a low stone wall adorned with trailing bellflowers.

The extremely private, south-facing front garden boasts a large lawn with a sunny patio area for seating and dining, as well as the cooling shade of two ancient yew trees and a venerable oak tree. Nestled under these trees is an attractive stumpery, thoughtfully created by the current owners. The entire front garden has been dog proofed. A pathway meanders from the front door around the property, passing a delightful herb and flower garden that leads to the main rear garden.

The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with a variety of mature trees, including a winter garden and fruit trees such as forest plums, apples, and black cherries. Notably, none of the trees are subject to preservation orders, allowing the new owners to retain the garden's privacy or to modify it as desired.

The property also features an array of outbuildings, including a stable block with two stables, three kennels with both a gated and a grass run, a garden shed, a large woodstore, and a greenhouse. A wonderful decked area, accessible from the dining room, snug, and bedroom two, provides a perfect spot to overlook the garden and enjoy your own slice of heaven.
