A range of outbuildings further enhances the property's versatility, including a substantial garage and a separate gym space, ideal for those seeking additional storage, workshop potential or fitness facilities.
The gardens offer a variety of seating and entertaining areas, perfectly positioned to take in the views, while the generous plot provides ample space for outdoor living, recreation, or further landscaping if desired.
Altogether, the exterior complements the property beautifully, offering privacy, space and flexibility in a truly idyllic setting.
