Particularly lovely, is the surprisingly low maintenance rear garden; who would have thought a garden so lovely would be so easy to care for! From the paved seating area, steps lead up to the principle garden which is gravelled with eye-catching flowerbeds and mature trees - the passion flower really stands out. Flanked by fragrant lavender beds, a step leads up to an area of artificial grass beyond which are more edged beds with mature plants and shrubs inset. The fencing to the rear of the garden is sceened by artificial ivy which gives added privacy and year-round colour.
