The Outbuildings and Ancillary space
To the northwest of the property is the converted stable block that is now an excellent recreational building, with a fitted kitchen, large leisure room, ladies and gent’s cloakrooms and an adjacent pool room with resistance pool and fitted sauna and steam cabin. Adjacent to this is a 60’ timber clad modern vehicle store, providing secure storage for up to twenty vehicles, with the facility created by the owner to hoist a helicopter in to this vehicle hanger.
The Gardens and Grounds
The gardens and grounds are breathtaking, creating the most beautiful setting for Foscombe House with acres of flower meadows, lawns and parkland to wander through, in complete privacy. The present owner has planted 1000’s more trees during his residency and created pathways that meander through the meadows leading to a Japanese style garden with shaded cover and water feature, the most wonderful canopied terrace with seating for 20 guests on a paved terrace set in the lawns, an expanse of east facing terrace taking in the grounds and views, vegetable garden with large greenhouse and two natural ponds. Much of the land has been planted and maintained to attract wildlife with quiet areas for nesting ducks and other waterlife and denser wooded areas for red deer and roe deer.
There are two approaches to Foscombe House, the most used being off Wickridge Street and marked by ornate wrought iron gates. The long private driveway is flanked by woodland and electric gates open up to the front of the grounds and the carriage driveway that sweeps around the house, bordered by a wide lawn with ornate fountain. The driveway and gardens are interspersed with magnificent oak trees that flank the driveway as it continues to the north side of the property and meanders down to Foscombe Lane.

Location
Foscombe House is situated around one mile from the picturesque village of Ashleworth which is a delightful ' living village' recognised as having an extremely warm community with a good range of local amenities and exceptional historic properties to include the 12th century St Andrews & Bartholomew church and the medieval Tithe Barn, owned by the National Trust. The area is extremely well regarded for country pursuits with miles of countryside walks and riding paths and sailing on the River Severn.
Situation
Foscombe House occupies one of the most magical settings in Gloucestershire with part of its beauty being that it is set in the middle of its own beautiful parkland grounds, with swathes of wild flower gardens and two sweeping driveways of around half a mile each approaching the house from either the north or south, gently weaving through the woodland and parkland setting until Foscombe House appears in view. This setting, on the summit of Foscombe Hill, enjoys exceptional peace, privacy and unrivalled views, not only across its own grounds but from a higher aspect, unspoiled rural views across to nine counties.
