Garden

A wonderful garden compliments the house beautifully. It should be noted that it is one of the few remaining houses on the street where the feu has not been split in order to create a separate building plot - and of course, that may be an option for any buyers (subject, of course, to obtaining building consents). The front garden has been radically overhauled and is now "chocolate box" pretty! There is vehicular access to the South side of the house to the rear of the property. Here there is a large parking forecourt in front of the garage plus a sheltered patio. The rear garden leads right up to the woodland at the rear and is laid mainly to lawn with mature fruit trees and vegetable growing area. At the top, there is scope for a variety of uses such as a summer house but what is not in question is the absolutely stunning view down the garden and to the hills beyond. There is also a gate for access to woodland walks. Also worthy of mention are the electricity power points at the top end of the garden and at the sheltered patio.

Fixtures And Fittings

The fitted floor coverings, curtains, blinds and light fittings will be included in the sale price along with the integrated dishwasher.
