The property currently has a stairlift for those looking for accessible accommodation but can be removed if not required.
Outside
The cottage is set back from the road with a small section of artificial lawn for ease of maintenance and a small, planted border. A traditional style lamppost sits to the left of the cottage and next to the five-bar gate which opens to the driveway for several vehicles and the double garage with added side door access. A greenhouse tucks into the side of the property before steps to the iron gates that lead into the garden.
The rear garden, laid with artificial lawn, has been lovingly created with to provide a bright and vibrant space with privet hedging and flower borders. Window boxes provide pop of additional colour, and the pond attracts wildlife to the space which can be enjoyed from the large patio accessed from the house via the French door. A pathway on the other side of the cottage provides additional access to the garden.
The private road is managed by a management committee of residents and a charge of £100 per annum is applicable for road maintenance.
