The property has been landscaped into separate garden rooms and awarded the best garden in the town by the local garden club on several occasions. The 'rooms' range from the traditional English cottage garden to a well-established collection of deciduous tree (weeping silver birch, japanese maple, and magnolia). A diverse range of fruit trees are established alongside an enclosed vegetable patch and chicken run, with a garden fully pathed with concrete and gravel paths. A railway sleeper (formally acting as a sleep-out upon a camping site at Coles Bay in the 1960s) acts as an ideal potting shed or teenage retreat (stca). Double car garage with white gravel driveway; lock-up timber garden shed and workshop offer plenty of storage options.
