To the front of the house is a large lawn bordered with flowerbeds and circular stone built seating to make the most of the views. The majority of the garden is to the rear of the house benefitting from the southerly aspect and is divided into separate zones including a large terrace directly onto the house flanked by colourful and well stocked flowerbeds which leads to an expanse of lawn with a charming summerhouse. Finally at the rear of the garden is a semi-enclosed parterre with gates leading into a dedicated growing garden with raised beds and a greenhouse. The garden is bounded by a stone wall to the east and south. The house also benefits from private gated access from Abbotsford Road.
