GARDENS AND GROUNDS
                           The Court stands in private walled grounds (1.20 acres) which have been
                           maintained to a high standard and have ‘the country house ambience’ that can only
                           be created by the passage of time, coupled with the present owners’ personal
                           interest in managing a rather special garden.

                           The aspect from the principal rooms in the house is across an extensive lawned
                           area, which is sheltered by an extensive range of mature trees and established
                           shrubs, with the focal points of a mature rhododendron thicket.

                           The property is accessed from Back Lane through the traditional high walled
                           boundary wall through which there is gated vehicular access directly to the main
                           entrance door of the house and into the enclosed stable yard (vehicle court) from
                           which there is a secondary entrance into the house and vehicular access into the
                           garage block.

                             A substantial Victorian stable block with ornate
                             Cupola extending from the house, which has in part
                             been utilised as a laundry/utility room - accessed
                             from the house by a covered way.

                             The remaining part of the building houses the three
                             remaining original loose box stables which were
                             constructed in cast ironwork and mahogany stable
                             dividers, with an intricate ‘briquette’ flooring - a credit
                             to the building standards of the Victorian era.

                             On first floor level there is an equivalent floor area,
                             with ample headroom for conversion.
