The property’s garden is mostly enclosed, however there is no gate on the driveway. Young children and pets should be supervised outside at all times due to small hidden drops and gaps in railings, and it may be possible that they could get out into neighbouring properties or onto the lane outside the house
The property is laid out over three floors and there are low sloping ceilings and beams in the Cinema Room and mezzanine space, as well as steep stairs directly outside the Cinema Room, which guests need to be careful of, especially at night. There is a stair gate on the Cinema Room door for safety, but this room and the mezzanine space are better suited to teenagers rather than young children
Although fully protected by railings, guests should be aware that there is a drop outside the door from the utility room. Likewise, the master bedroom balcony has a drop down to the ground. To the left of the front door there is a drop as the garden slopes away, again with railings in place. Due to these potential hazards inside and outside the house, young children should be supervised at all times
The smoke and CO detectors operate on a sound only basis and, therefore, those who have serious impairment of hearing may not be able to hear the alarm systems and could be at risk
No smoking or vaping is permitted throughout the property
