About this property

  • In a convenient position for Cookham station and the many amenities of the Thameside village, Pound End is situated at the end of a quiet, private cul de sac. Set in just over 1.5 acres, the property has deceptively large gardens completely un-overlooked to the rear. The attractive house forms part of a small, individual development of similar detached homes, each one unique. The house is a substantial family home of more than 4000 sq ft, with generously proportioned accommodation throughout and a fantastically versatile layout. Pound End was built in the mid-1980s and is elegantly appointed, having received a number of improvements over the years including a handmade kitchen by Podesta, underfloor heating, a new en suite bathroom and an extension over the garage, as well as full cosmetic redecoration. The house also benefits from a number of premium features including an outdoor swimming pool, tennis court and bifold doors opening to the rear garden.

    An attractive first impression is provided by the entrance hall, which has a feature staircase. To one side of the hallway there is a large open plan living area and kitchen, which is perfect for spending time together as a family. The kitchen is well appointed and further benefits from an adjoining utility room and WC. In addition there is a separate formal sitting room with wood-burning stove, a TV room/snug, a study and a further WC. Upstairs there is a principal bedroom with a dressing area and en suite shower room, a further en suite bedroom, three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, a laundry room and a large games room, which offers great flexibility to be an additional bedroom; sitting room; or potential enhancement for an annexe.

    Outside
    The garden is a real highlight of this beautiful home, featuring an expansive lawn encircled by mature trees and hedging, with a variety of specimen trees, well-stocked flowerbeds and shrub borders providing colour and interest in all seasons. Set with the lawn is an outdoor pool surrounded by a paved terrace, with ample space for sun loungers and a summerhouse which is currently used as a gym. Keen gardeners will appreciate the charming kitchen garden, where raised beds and a Victorian-style greenhouse are enclosed by a picket fence. To the front of the house, an electronically operated gated driveway (with keypad entryphone) opens to a good-size gravel driveway and the double integrated garage.
