Outside, the property is approached via a gravelled driveway, providing plenty of space for cars, boats, and dinghies. A large detached double garage is accessed through double doors, with a spacious workshop area. The landscaped gardens have been meticulously maintained, featuring sweeping patios to the front and rear, a large lawn, and several viewing gardens.
