This walled garden behind this charming cottage provides a calming oasis from today's busy life. The mood is set by the sound of trickling water coming from the fountain located in the in-ground koi pond.

A wonderful brick staircase, which leads to the upper parking area, provides the background for the pond and its statuary.

The paved aggregate dining area within the garden is surrounded by a flourishing array of plants that includes hosta, crepe myrtle, laurel, and boxwoods. Hanging planters filled with color provide the finishing touch to this enchanting garden space.
