Outside the property there is a large outbuilding suitable for ample storage, two garages as well as an extensive garden with large lawns and shrub borders. One well behaved, preferably female, dog, which is not allowed upstairs, may be permitted at the Landlord’s written discretion. No other pets, including cats, will be permitted. No visiting dogs or other pets will be permitted in the house at any time. There is an outside kennel and run available. The garden is not guaranteed to be dog proof. The property has oil central heating, with a new condensing boiler, and benefits from double glazed UPVC windows throughout. Superfast Fibre Broadband (up to 900 Mbps) and a good 4G mobile signal are available. Birdcage House has the benefit of a large garden laid to lawns to the front and rear of this secluded property. The front garden also comprises mature planting of trees and shrubs with gravelled parking to the front of the property, extending round to the west. In addition, there is a brick open fronted garage and shed. To the rear of the property is the annexe which provides two garden storerooms, oil tanks and a large open work room. The Landlord is willing to carry out the spraying of the gravel areas twice a year, strimming the bank on the western side and pruning all the shrubs and bushes when appropriate. The Landlord will also cut the hedges and strim the ditches outside the boundary fences. The Tenant will be expected to mow the lawns as required, cut the lawn edges on a regular basis, pick up all the leaves and sticks on lawns and borders, weed the borders and weed all the gravel areas between the Landlord’s spraying. At the first property inspection, six months after the start of the tenancy, or at any time after that, if the Landlord feels that the tenant is unable to do the gardening as agreed above, the Landlord will do it and charge the Tenant.
