Outside From the private driveway the house is initially entered over a pillared and tarmac-paved private driveway with a lawn to the side, roses to the curved boundary wall and tall mixed hedgerow at the side to the golf course adjacent. There is then a further walled entrance with pillars and pillar lights where the driveway continues to the main parking forecourt.
At the front of the house there is a wide garden laid to lawn and enclosed by a fine boundary wall with blue brick capping and pillars. As previously mentioned, the house is approached over a granite block-lined pathway with flower beds and shrubberies adjacent and the front garden is enclosed by flower borders with a variety of colourful plants, exotic palm trees and a further selection of shrubs. There are wall lights set into the boundary brick wall which extends across from the driveway, which is shaped to form an extremely spacious parking and turning area whilst also giving access to the garage. A brick-built side wall by the driveway retains a well-stocked shrubbery bed with Christmas tree and a fine selection of ornamental shrubs and bushes, together with screen conifer hedging.
Granite-paved pathways lead around each side of the house with lawned gardens and further retaining brick walls, having blue brick capping over tiles to raised flower and shrubbery beds. The pathways extend around the rear of the house eventually reaching a spacious granite-paved patio contained between the side and conservatory wings and forming a sheltered sun-trap.
The patio is open to a large, level semi-circular lawn with a curved blue brick-capped, stepped wall to the lawn beyond and raised shrubbery beds. On each side of this feature there are sloping lawned pathways leading up to the main elevated lawn which continues for some distance to aan eventual grass bank enclosed by mature trees beyond the boundaries.
There are more shaped borders with ornamental trees on each side and glimpses of the scenic landscaped golf course stretching away beyond to the west. There are numerous outside lights positioned around the house, including soffit LED lighting and wall lanterns. External gas and electricity meter cabinets, outside water tap and wiring to the inner driveway pillars for electric gates if a buyer wishes to install these. Garden power point for outside lighting or garden power tools. Satellite dish located at higher level to the side elevation.
