The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, while the terraced side garden is also laid to lawn and leads around to the rear garden, which has a further lawed area, space for a useful garden shed, a paved pathway and feature raised patio seating area, which makes for a perfect spot to relax/entertain within the warmer months of the year.
