A gated pillared entrance opens to an extensive tarmac drive which provides parking and continues to the side, via further iron gates, to the garage which has up and over doors, power connected and twin timber doors at the rear onto a block paved area. A wrought iron staircase at the side leads up to the annexe/guest wing which has a triple aspect over 19 sq. ft. open plan space with adjoining kitchen and shower room.
