Each of HERBERT LUCK NORTH's properties enjoys generous gardens with the houses all having distinctive facades with steep white gables and steep slate roofs so distinctive of his designs. The garden to our property No.12, faces south/south west, is sunny and sheltered, quiet and private and was designed by the head gardener of BODNANT GARDENS with many of the specimens still alive today, in particular the beautiful magnolia tree planted in 1927. We know this because the original planting index is in the ownership of the seller and will be left with the property for the new owner.
