Double doors open through to the triple garage from here and there is a large, enclosed storage cupboard too. The triple garage has ample space for 3 vehicles serviced by a remote controlled electric roller door which opens directly to the roadside.
Outside – The property is surrounded by a combination of Purbeck stone walls, fencing and hedging making quite a secluded and sheltered space. The garden is a blank canvas, the present occupier did not finish any of the landscaping following alterations so the garden requires some further preparation, it would benefit considerably from some topsoil being brought in and landscaped as required. There are some terrace areas, a concrete built rectangular pond and the hedges have been superbly maintained. A gated, paved front courtyard offers ample parking, and there are two sets of Iroko wooden gates providing vehicular access to all areas of the garden for landscaping and maintenance.
