A tree lined gravel driveway leads from the road to a parking area at the rear of the property.

The gardens comprise a rear patio area, formal lawns with a number of compartments, delineated with beech hedging and stone walls, which contain well stocked flower beds, various shrubs and trees, giving colour throughout the year. There is also an extensive and productive vegetable area with various raised beds and fruit cages. A garden folly has been built giving somewhere to enjoy the evening sun. A mixed hedge protects the garden from the road giving a private feel to the property.

An old agricultural building provides generous storage space for the property. The building includes a garage area with electric door, workshop with store and two further store rooms. At the rear end of the building are two large loose boxes.

Laid to pasture the land is generally flat and split into three paddocks, it is currently grazed by the owners horses. In the past the land has also been let for the grazing of sheep and the making of hay. The land is mainly bounded by post and rail fencing with a mature hedgerow boundary along the roadside.
