Southlands is set well within its plot, gated and set back from the shared driveway. There is plenty of off driveway parking which in turn provides access to the triple car garage. The gardens surrounding the house are outstanding and extremely rare in such a central location. The paved patio is glass screen enclosed providing a fabulous outside entertaining space whilst ensuring a safe area for young children. The landscaped garden is rather special with a pond and waterways, well stocked beds and children`s `den area`. The gardens are fully enclosed with mature hedging and flanked by some superb mature trees.
