The elegant drawing room has full height sash windows overlooking the terrace and garden beyond. There is a fabulous 21 formal dining room conveniently adjoining the kitchen which also has a log burning stove. In addition there is a charming study with large sash windows at the front of the house which could also serve as a cosy sitting room.

Coombe House is approached via smart wrought iron gates onto a large spacious gravelled driveway which has been imaginatively designed with specimen trees underplanted with lavender hedging and neat geometric box topiary. The approach to Coombe House is an understated yet sophisticated backdrop to the striking Georgian
architecture of the house. To one side is a period brick outbuilding believed to be a former coach house. Planning permission has been granted for conversion of this existing outbuilding to ancillary accommodation. Interested parties are requested to make their own enquiries with the local planning authority.
