Outside, the front garden is enclosed by bespoke railings (awaiting installation) with a pedestrian gate flanked by tall, stone-capped piers. A red and black quarry tiled path runs up to the front steps with iron hand rails either side. An alley alongside the house leads through a door into the south facing, walled rear garden. In this garden there is a wooden store shed, Summerhouse, original ice house and charming restored brick Privy.
Having undergone major renovation, the house has newly installed Gas Central Heating and boiler, plumbing and electrics, including a smoke alarm system. Sisal flooring from Crucial Trading runs throughout the ground floor, staircases and landings. The bedroom floors are covered in Wool carpet and the Kitchen/Dining/Living room has solid wooden floorboards.
