Exterior
The garden to the South is one of the propertys most notable assets, providing the house with an utterly delightful setting and being an exceptional space in its own right. Occupying part of what was once a grand Georgian walled garden for Arthurstone Estate, it has retained much of the symmetry associated with a traditional planned garden and is lent definition by traditional box hedging, a pair of ponds, and footpaths. It has been stocked and landscaped with passion and interest over the passage of time, having been a traditional market garden in the 1990s, and features a varied array of mature trees, including ornamental birch trees, cherry and yew trees, and fruit trees. There is an eclectic range of shrubs and bushes and herbaceous borders featuring an abundance of perennials provide further colour and interest in the garden. Smart flagstone patio terraces margin the house itself each one something of a sheltered suntrap for alfresco living and entertaining, against the backdrop of the glorious garden.
1 Arthurstone Gardens is accessed initially via a shared private road before a private driveway provides room for car parking and turning as well as access to a triple garage.
To the North West of the house, there is a private copse of woodland with a traditional stone outbuilding and exceptional far-reaching views across the neighbouring countryside, to the distant hills.
