Set behind electric gates on the edge of Wylam, Garden Cottage is a substantial and impeccably maintained stone-built home with far-reaching views and 1.85 acres of landscaped grounds. It offers a rare combination of privacy, scale and modern comfort, with a layout designed to suit both everyday living and entertaining. Built in the early 2000s and later extended, the interiors are light-filled and beautifully presented, while the gardens, enclosed by a ha-ha and mature planting, provide a peaceful and private setting that combines rural scale with village-edge convenience. The entrance hall is wide and welcoming, with oak floors and a staircase rising to the upper levels. At the heart of the ground floor sits the main sitting room, a generously proportioned and versatile space arranged around a contemporary woodburning stove. Glazed doors open into the garden room, a striking addition with a vaulted ceiling and gable-end glazing, offering panoramic views and direct access to the terrace. The adjacent kitchen and dining room span the depth of the house, with French doors opening onto the lavender-edged terrace and garden beyond. High-gloss cabinetry, granite worktops, and integrated appliances are paired with neutral stone flooring. A large utility room lies just off the kitchen, with access to the side entrance and garden. The ground floor also includes a dedicated study fitted with bespoke cabinetry, offering an ideal workspace with views across the garden, along with a guest cloakroom discreetly positioned off the hall. Upstairs, four double bedrooms are arranged around a bright central landing. The principal suite is positioned to enjoy garden views and includes fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom, while the top floor reveals two large attic rooms with Velux windows, currently used for leisure but offering flexible use as guest bedrooms, playrooms or studios. The gardens at Garden Cottage are an exceptional feature. Extending to approximately 1.85 acres, the grounds are a masterclass in understated landscaping, framed by mature hedging and specimen trees that ensure privacy without sacrificing the open, elevated views. Sweeping lawns stretch out from the house, flanked by lavender beds, herbaceous borders and orchard-style planting. A traditional ha-ha wall preserves the outlook across the Tyne Valley while subtly enclosing the formal garden space, offering unobstructed views with discreet separation. Multiple seating areas are positioned to follow the sun throughout the day, with the main terrace offering a perfect spot for al fresco dining just outside the garden room. A detached double garage sits to one side, providing substantial storage or workshop space, and includes an electric vehicle charging point. The roof of the house is fitted with solar panels, feeding into a battery storage system. The tarmacadam driveway offers ample parking within the secure gated entrance. Wylam is a very popular commuter village in the Tyne Valley with excellent links to Newcastle City Centre, with the benefit of beautiful scenery and countryside nearby and famous for being the birthplace of George Stephenson. The village offers day-to-day shopping, pubs and restaurants. Close House Hotel and Golf Club and Matfen Hall are located close by and offer excellent leisure and restaurant facilities.
