The property is approached along a gravel driveway flanked by yew and beech hedging which leads to an extensive parking and turning area to the side of the house. From here a gravel pathway leads to the front door, as well as a paved pathway to the utility room to the rear.

Range of useful outbuildings including double garage, potting shed, workshop/offices above with scope to improve and/or convert to additional accommodation, subject to the relevant consents.

The gardens lie predominantly to the west and north and are laid to lawn with terrace, stone wall and yew hedging. Orchard. Vegetable garden flanked by yew hedging. Tree house.

To the south there is a spinney and small paddock, ideal for a pony.

There is a considerable amount of privacy offered by the extensive gardens and grounds as well as the glorious views to the west over rolling Northamptonshire countryside.
