The south-east facing garden has a raised patio terrace, well suited to alfresco dining. Of particular note is the property's substantial studio, which has an en suite and could easily serve as a third bedroom. A summerhouse located at the bottom of the garden has power, lighting and insulation, lending a great opportunity for a home office or snug. There is an additional patio area, timber shed, good sized lawn, all of which is fully enclosed.

The middle of Girton village is a short walk away and has a range of pubs and restaurants, shops and other facilities. There is a primary school in the village that feeds into Impington Village College (3 miles) plus a tennis club and golf course. Many of the city's private schools are on the west side of the city, so are easily accessible.
