Upon arrival at the secure electric gates, it is instantly recognisable that this property is something special. The long driveway is flanked by swathes of land, ripe with potential. The chateau-like treeline of Cypress Conifers, as with all the gardens and foliage - are exquisitely and tirelessly maintained under the guardianship of the proud owner.
The steep, well maintained drive introduces nicely the grandeur of the courtyard roundabout and spaces for many cars.
Sat at the top of the driveway is a 3 car garage, though with it's high, beautifully beamed ceiling could be equally at home as a banquet hall!
