low retaining wall and having steps rising to the extensive lawn gardens, bordered by
a hedge and shrub boundary with specimen trees, a soft-surface play area and a large
ornamental pond.
A dilapidated, semi-detached barn with adjoining outbuildings offers great potential
for refurbishment and the possibility of connecting to the main residence, creating an
annex for a dependent relative or a home-office space. Currently, the first part of the
outbuilding houses a washing machine, a freezer, has an old fireplace and step-ladder
access to a first-floor storage area. The main part of the barn is currently used for
storage, has a loft area and has been subdivided to form a former stable.
