The garden is where this property really excels, meticulously maintained and generously sized both front and back. The front garden is laid to lawn with a gentle slope, setting the property back off the road providing the property with excellent curb appeal.

There is a level driveway for a few cars with space to create more parking if required. The garage is large and extends to 8.75m which forms as part of the extension and would make an ideal workshop/hobbies room.

There is a handy side access to the rear garden which is gated and enclosed, perfect for your fury friends. Being rather nicely landscaped you have a secluded nook where you can find a potting shed, whether you're an avid gardener with a green thumb or simply enjoy the pleasures of outdoor living, this garden offers both. Laid mostly to lawn with landscaped beds full of flowers and shrubs, the tree boarders provide a good degree of privacy. The property is perfectly situated, to the beach offering you the perfect alternative spot to fully stretch the legs or tire out the pups.
