Outside: The property sits within beautifully landscaped grounds of approximately 0.4 acres, offering a sense of seclusion and tranquillity from every angle.

To the side, a mature lawn is framed by a variety of specimen trees and vibrant planting, with a koi pond, water feature and timber bridge forming a natural focal point. This area flows into a south-west facing rear garden, arranged in gentle tiers to maximise the setting and outlook. A large, decked entertaining area extends from the rear of the house via bi-fold doors from the dining room and sits beneath a timber pergola, ideal for outdoor dining and enjoying the far-reaching views across Harestone Valley.
