Outside

As you approach the property from the quiet lane, you're welcomed by a private driveway offering off-road parking beneath a car port. There's ample space here to build a garage, subject to the necessary planning permissions. A pretty front garden, accessed by an antique wrought iron gate, sets the tone for what lies beyond.

The property sits on a generous plot measuring approximately 0.17 acres, with gated access leading through to a beautifully established rear garden. This hidden oasis is thoughtfully divided into tranquil lawns, secluded seating areas, and an abundant ‘food forest’ - a gardener’s dream. Here you'll find over 20 mature fruit trees, flourishing soft fruit borders, a grapevine, and a variety of productive planting.

Within the garden are several outbuildings, including a 24ft x 10ft stone structure that houses an outdoor WC and presents exciting potential for redevelopment or conversion (subject to planning). The overall feel is one of peace and privacy - a truly serene setting.
