Outside, a private driveway leads to generous parking for multiple vehicles. A timber garage connects to a store and workshop, both with power and light. A brick outbuilding with pantiled roof houses the bore hole water supply, serviced annually. The grounds extend to approximately one acre, beautifully landscaped with flowering beds and borders, well-established trees, terraced areas and a water feature. Planning consent has been granted for a 16-panel solar installation with battery backup, sufficient to power the property.
