The property benefits from a tarmacadam driveway bordered by mature hedging that ensures privacy. A side path leads to both the double garage and an expansive rear garden that feels like a secluded retreat. Lush trees and shrubs create an inviting atmosphere, complemented by lawn areas leading up to an elevated patio—perfect for outdoor gatherings or relaxation.
