After significant renovations to the property, the last piece of the puzzle was to create a driveway that encapsulates the essence of this stunning home.
Marshalls Original Cobble block paving made for a natural choice to complement and enhance the Gothic features of the property.
A large circle feature was included in the centre of the irregular-shaped driveway to give a sense of grandeur.
Impressive boundary walls were constructed – towering almost 3m at the highest point – complete with fluted Bath stone pier caps and coping stones, providing privacy from neighbouring homes.
For security, elegant wrought iron electric gates were fitted across the front of the entrance to the property.
Perfectly manicured box hedges and topiary trees were chosen to elevate and soften this impressive driveway transformation.
