The patio from the front wraps around the property and gives a stylish and clean lined finish.
The polished grey slate is bordered by bright white pebbles which offset the colour of the red brick beautifully.

The oak sleepers flow onto a double tiered terrace which offers plenty of lawn for those who enjoy grass seating and extends to a higher tier where the steps are again in polished slate and lead to another dining/seating area.
The tall red brick walls of the garden offer privacy and the added benefit of wooden fencing to the elevation makes the garden an oasis of calm away form the neighbouring properties.
The current owners have chosen hardy and colourful planting for their scheme and these will flourish and mature into spectacular blooms in the coming years.
