Gardens and Grounds A widened drop curb gives generous vehicular access to the brick block paved forecourt, which spans the front elevation of the property, and this continues to the right-hand side of the home, which in turn gives access to the detached single garage. The driveway can easily accommodate several vehicles, and the garage has an up-and-over style door. An ornate picket fence with gate joins the garage and property and gives pedestrian access to the professionally landscaped rear garden. There is a paved patio spanning the rear elevation, and this leads onto an artificial lawn which extends towards the rear boundary where there is a further patio and decorative pagoda designed for catching the evening sun. Adjacent to this space, there is an area laid to wood chip specifically to suit children’s play equipment and the boundaries to the garden are clearly defined by a variety of closed panel fences.
