GARDENS AND GROUNDS
Occupying an elevated position within a surrounding plot, Tyle Cottage enjoys a great degree of privacy and seclusion while remaining one of the village's landmark character homes. Set back from the road, the property is approached via an attractive pathway through the front garden, while a sweeping driveway leads to an off road parking area fronting a detached double garage with electric remote-controlled door, power, and useful eaves storage.
To the rear, the driveway continues to a beautifully secluded 'secret' garden, providing a peaceful retreat. Additional landscaped gardens can be accessed directly from both the lounge and family sitting room, where sheltered paved terraces offer ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining. Surrounded by well-tended lawns and fragrant planting including jasmine, honeysuckle and designer roses, the gardens provide an idyllic setting to enjoy throughout the seasons.
