Whether you’re hosting summer barbecues or enjoying a peaceful morning coffee, this garden is made for year-round enjoyment.
Owner’s View
"What I have loved about living in this house is the character and the great sense of space the house has to offer. The kitchen has always been the hub of this house, seeing many dinner parties with family and good friends. The south-facing garden was a massive attraction to me; it has it all, privacy and great size for summer barbecues or just my quiet peaceful place.
I also built a nice patio, partly covered to enjoy the outside in all seasons. Our road has a good community spirit, and the neighbours on both sides are incredibly lovely. I work in London, and a short walk to the central line station was important for me.”
