The garden is a large grassy haven of light and shade. Walls are boarded to the rear by yew, chestnut and lime trees, providing cool respite on summer days. The sun arcs directly over the house allowing for afternoon garden gatherings and dining, well into the evening. There is an elegant and beautifully proportioned stone pool house for private and safe swimming. The pool, a pristine expanse of water, is heated for comfort throughout the cooler months. Steps from the five arched doors lead to the garden where there are bountiful places to recline and relax.
