Outside
The drive culminates in a large gravelled parking sweep to the side of the house giving access to the double cart lodge. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with a partial moat running along the boundary. The rear gardens are particularly beautiful with well stocked herbaceous borders, wide expanses of lawn, established trees and hedging, providing the property with a high degree of privacy and seclusion. Along the eastern boundary lies the walled courtyard where the swimming pool is situated, heated by solar panels and an air source heat pump. Behind this is the hard tennis court, garage and gym area.

The large Suffolk barn is accessed via double doors on either side and has the potential to be developed as ancillary accommodation to the main house subject to the necessary consents being obtained. Behind the tennis court lies the kitchen garden and greenhouse, orchard and a small paddock. The paddock access is gained via a right of way along the far eastern boundary.
