OUTSIDE
From Charlestown Road, a short, private lane leads to this and just four other properties. From the lane an impressive set of wrought iron double gates opens to the circular driveway. The drive surrounds an island which features a large, two level fish pond and is planted with trees and shrubs around a central Cornish Palm.
The circular theme is picked up by the raised flower and shrub beds around the driveway and to the front of the house. Off the circular drive, a further section of drive approaches the garage and there is also a separate parking area. Timber garden shed 10' 0" x 8' 0" (3.05m x 2.44m)
As the name implies, the main garden at the rear of the house is a feature of the property and is exceptionally private and secluded.
To the rear of the house, a paved patio links the doors from the conservatory, the dining room, the kitchen, the link passageway and the swimming pool. The patio gives on to a well tended level lawn which in turn is surrounded well stocked raised flower and shrub beds. Surrounding the flower beds on a higher level is a pathway which goes around the garden and is in turn surrounded by a high stone wall. This area is also home to the Greenhouse and a further timber garden shed.
On the other side of the link passageway is a spacious paved area ideal for storage or laundry. This area also gives access to:-
Workshop
3m x 2m (9' 10" x 6' 7") Direct outside access. Power and light connected.
