Shrouded in tall mature trees, large exterior rear grounds complete the property. Indian sandstone paving conveniently encapsulates the rear of the home, providing endless opportunities for alfresco dining or entertaining. A set of paved steps leads up from the patio and onto a large stretch of lawn, where a private sanctuary immersed in the stillness of nature awaits.
