By the Property there is a stone paved patio that extends to side access and to the gravelled entertaining area with covering timber pergola and mature grape vine. The Pergola flanks the main lawn which is enclosed by manicured topiary and other mature plantings and a path flows from the lawn through trained Lime trees forming a glorious boundary when in full leaf. As you continue down the Garden there are formal planted beds with manicured box hedges, gravelled walkways, deep well stocked planted beds and a lovely Victorian formal garden feel. Extending to the side there are box hedges enclosing an array of perfectly maintained veg beds, orchard area with Cherry trees, Apple trees, Plum trees, Strawberries and other mature and established perennial plants. At the rear of the Garden there is a stone built outbuilding currently used as a potting shed/workshop, but would be ideal for conversion into a Garden Room, a paved seating area ideal for entertaining in the afternoon sun and a further gravelled area with a most impressive Damson Tree.
