Outside
Double timber gates access a tarmacadam driveway which leads to a turning area centred upon ancient sycamores and bounded by a hedge of beech interspersed with a number of sorbus and whitebeam. A spur off leads to a gravelled parking area. Adjacent to the rear elevation is a stone and pantile range comprising a double garage with remote controlled electrically operated up-and-over doors with lean-to coalstore and log store. To the rear is a wooden chicken shed.

Forming one of the principal attractions of the property are the superb gardens and grounds which are both extensive and well established. There is a flagged terrace facing south over a formal area of garden with yew heging, symmetrically arranged arbours surmounted by Hornbeam, and flowing beds of annuals and perennials. To the east is a less formal area with sweeping lawns and many specimen trees including Pine, Sycamore, Spruce, Fir, Juniper and Cypress; here there is an ornamental pond and an octagonal summer house with flagged seating area offering a pleasing aspect towards the daffodil-filled orchard and the church beyond.

In all some 1.67 acres
