4 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Henley-on-Thames, RG9 6BE £1,550,000

From the living room, an original internal staircase ascends to the first floor, where there are four bedrooms, all set beneath high, vaulted ceilings and beautiful, exposed beams. Three of these, including the principal bedroom, are internally connected and all benefit by panoramic views of the Chiltern Hills.
Set beneath eaves and accessible from the landing, the family bathroom is finished with tiled walls and fitted with a bathtub.
The large barn extension is entered from the kitchen via an inner hallway, leading to a separate W/C and utility room. The ground floor is currently home to a versatile workshop space, an enclosed storeroom, and a garage/large storage area that opens to the driveway via large wooden doors.

Upstairs, set beneath a pitched roof with exposed wood beams, is a welcoming sitting and dining area. At one end, a splendid picture window frames postcard-like views of the rural surroundings. To the other end, there is a quiet and private study.

Outside
Sitting in circa 0.66 of an acre of established private gardens that surround the property whilst being bordered by the mature trees; to the front is an expansive lawn, also home to a small fruit-bearing orchard with plantings of several varieties of apple trees, leading to the kitchen garden.
Both the kitchen and living room open directly to a sunken patio at the rear of the house, with space to dine and entertain outdoors. South-west facing formal gardens extend toward the rear, with the majority laid to lawn whilst being interspersed with neatly trimmed box hedging, maintained flowerbeds and a pond. Raised on staddle stones, an old granary sits to one side of the gardens and lends itself beautifully to be transformed into a peaceful study or summer house (subject to usual consents).
