There is a large front garden, planted with mature plants and lawn, that is partly walled - please note that part of the lawned garden is open and raised up from the road. The road is directly outside the property boundary and there is no path on the side of the road to the bungalow, although there is a pathway on the opposite side.

From the driveway you enter the property through a gate, which leads to a stepped decked area leading up the the main front door.

In between the lovely mature plants in the rear garden, is the well - a lovely feature of a 22ft deep, stone walled well and where ‘The Wishing Well’ gets its name. The well is covered by a grill for safety, but it is a fully working well. This is a lovely feature to the garden and is also has lights that automatically come on in the evening.

The garden is accessed from the living area through a set of French doors, which leads to a stepped, decked area that sweeps down into the garden.
