A fence divides the front drive from a secondary courtyard area, which could be used for additional parking and provides access to a detached kennels block and the large garage complex, offering parking, a workshop, storage and a home gym.

The beautifully landscaped rear gardens, enjoying a sunny south-facing aspect, include paved and gravel terraces ideal for al fresco dining, with a lawn edged by mature trees and shrubs. Beyond the garden, gates open to a generous paddock.
