The double garage is accessed from here, with remote control up and over doors, and it is also connected to the house to allow easy access. To the south side of the garden there is a large area of grass, when the current vendors purchased the site there was permission for two properties, but they chose to build one house with a bigger garden. It may be possible to get another house on the site if required (subject to planning permission). The garden has been a labour of love since it was established from scratch, with manicured lawns, mature hedges on all boundaries, honeysuckle trellises, a variety of trees, including Acer and Maple, climbing roses, and flowering shrubs. There is a large south and west facing terrace banked by flint walls for shelter and from here steps lead up to the lawn. __________ LOCAL AUTHORITY Kings Lynn and West Norfolk Band G __________ SERVICES Mains electricity water and drainage, private bore hole for garden water.
