      Plot 4

      This two-bedroom house has been beautifully designed, built and finished to the highest standards.

      In addition to light filled living space, this new home boasts a terrace, balcony, and private garden. Glazed double doors lead from the light and airy drawing room, at the front of the house, to a large kitchen/dining room which provides plenty of space for entertaining family and friends. The elegant, bespoke kitchen cabinets and full complement of high-quality integrated appliances are bound to impress. A second set of glazed, double doors open onto the sunroom, the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee, afternoon tea or pre-dinner drinks, winter, and summer alike. The sunroom provides direct access to the terrace and private garden beyond.

      Completing the ground floor accommodation is a cloakroom fitted with a utility cupboard which houses the washing machine and tumble dryer.

      On the upper floor, both bedrooms have their own en-suites, one with an en-suite bathroom and the other with a shower room. The principal bedroom has its own private balcony, which will be a delightful place to relax on a summer's afternoon.

From newly built to meticulously restored properties, each Beechcroft home is energy-efficient and easily maintained and features a high-quality specification.

    Local information

    • With the River Thames to the east and The Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to the west, Shiplake is surrounded by spectacular scenery. This is one of the most accessible, yet unspoilt, landscapes in the country; a rich tapestry of ancient woodlands, wildlife-rich heathland, chalk streams, picturesque villages and cultural landmarks. This scenic area is home to a collection of historic houses, each with its own unique charm. You'll find the National Trust's Grey's Court and Nuffield Place near Henley-on-Thames and Cliveden, just over the border in Buckinghamshire.
    • Shiplake has two distinct areas, each with its own character and sense of community. The village store, post office, butcher's and the award-winning Baskerville Arms are located in Lower Shiplake, whilst Shiplake Cross is home to the Grade II listed parish church and The Plough, a beautifully renovated 17th century inn. The village's Memorial Hall hosts exercise classes, theatrical and musical performances as well as clubs and societies catering for all interests from art and amateur dramatics to badminton and table tennis. Shiplake Tennis Club provides family-friendly tennis and, for golfers, Henley Golf Club offers one of Oxfordshire's finest courses. Riverside living brings abundant opportunities for fishing, sailing and rowing. Wargrave & Shiplake Regatta is a popular celebration of traditional boating. Shiplake's Primary School, with a nursery on site, was rated ‘Good' by Ofsted whilst the nearest secondary school, Gillotts in Henley achieved an ‘Excellent' rating. Shiplake College, an independent day and boarding school has an excellent reputation but there's plenty of choice of independents. Rupert House in Henley is a happy, high achieving independent school for 3 to 11-year-olds. Queen Anne's School, Caversham is a boarding and day school for girls aged 11 to 19. The Abbey School, just south of Reading town centre, has a nursery as well as junior and senior schools and attracts girls from all over the south of England. The Reading Blue Coat School in Sonning-on-Thames has been achieving excellent results since 1646. Out of school, Shiplake Football Club, with close ties to Reading FC, has under-14 and under-16 teams and the village has an active Scout group.
    • Whether you're doing the weekly shop, meeting friends for a coffee or a meal or heading out for the evening, Henley-on-Thames, just three miles from Shiplake has plenty to offer. There's a fabulous choice of restaurants, bistros, cafes and bars including popular chains such as The Giggling Squid along with enticing independents like The Shellfish Cow and the Bistro at the Boathouse, with its river views and decked terrace. For your grocery shopping, there's a Waitrose, a Tesco and a COOK along with delicatessens, bakeries and patisseries. For an evening's entertainment, the Regal Picturehouse is a characterful, three-screen, cinema with a café bar but don't miss the chance to catch a show at The Mill at Sonning, the UK's only dinner-theatre. Henley Festival, a five-day, black-tie event celebrating the best of national and international music is an annual highlight – and, of course, there's the world-famous Henley Royal Regatta. For a day's retail therapy, Marlow has the perfect mix of High Street names, upmarket retailers and independent boutiques. With an annual food festival and a collection of restaurants including The Ivy Marlow Garden with its fabulous Art-Deco interior and The Hand & Flowers, the only gastropub in the country to be awarded two Michelin stars, Marlow attracts food-lovers from all over the south. For complete relaxation, the Spa Illuminata at Danesfield House Hotel is a luxurious and tranquil place to indulge in treatments – and the afternoon tea at the hotel is irresistible.
