The sitting area is surrounded by a curved brick wall which adjoins the raised end section of the garden. The raised end section features a chestnut tree & part of it could be developed further by placement of a summerhouse, decking or otherwise.

Parking 
To the front & on road as reserved by virtue of the garage entrance, or in the garage for a small car or motorbike, if the garage is fully utilised as garage.

Agents Note

The house offers opportunities for further development STPP.
