Studios At Newcombes

To the front, the property is retained by a dwarf brick wall and a lawned front garden which has a range of trees providing privacy to the home from the road. There is also a sweeping driveway to the front of the home and electric gates to the side of the plot which lead to the garages, courtyard and outbuildings. Parking for the Studios can also be found to the front of the plot.

The garden itself is truly remarkable and is completely private from any neighbouring properties. Split into a variety of different sections it’s a brilliant space for anyone who is green-fingered. There is a varied collection of rare trees and plants which have matured over the years.

The property also comes with its own lake which is the centre-piece of the garden - currently home to three geese and their goslings, moorhens and ducks.
