Outside

The property sits in grounds extending to just over a third of an acre, enjoying a south/south-westerly orientation and backing onto open fields. The gardens are beautifully landscaped over two terraces and thoughtfully planted with a wide variety of trees, shrubs and flowering borders, along with a pond.
A formal garden area to the side includes a shed and greenhouse, mature beds and a productive vegetable patch. There are numerous fruit bushes including raspberry, blackcurrant, redcurrant, loganberry, gooseberry and strawberry, together with fruit trees including greengage, pear, cherry, apple and plum, all productive. Steps from the upper terrace lead down to further garden areas to the rear of the cottage, creating a wonderfully private and magical outdoor setting.
There are two timber garages (4.80m x 2.74m and 5.23m x 2.92m), both with light and power.
