Outside The front garden is accessed from the drive to the side of the house and has a slightly sloping lawn with a high mature hedge. By tidying it up, there would be a pleasant pedestrian path to the front door and by lowering the hedge there will also be a far reaching aspect towards the city. The driveway leads up to a small single garage, subject to planning this could be re-built and incorporated into the home. It is rare to be so close to the city yet have a rear garden backed by woodland and fields near by. Having the neighbouring land owned by a group of the neighbours caring for it and its wildlife is an added bonus.
