Description

Wyle Cop is believed to date from the 1930’s and is constructed of brick elevations under a tiled roof with high brick chimney stacks. The property occupies an enviable location within the village, set well back from the road and amongst established gardens and grounds which provide a high degree of privacy.

Internally Wyle Cop offers well proportioned family accommodation arranged over three floors served by gas fired central heating. It would however benefit from a scheme or upgrading in keeping with modern standards and we believe there is also scope for re-development of the site, subject to obtaining the requisite permissions.
