About this property

  • The house is set back from the main road, the original cottage is thought to date back to 1880 with later additions. The house is fully double glazed with new UPVC windows throughout.

    Entering through the porch and front door the hallway opens to the kitchen and playroom, with all downstairs rooms interconnecting making for a pleasing flow to the ground floor. The kitchen has painted wooden units below wooden and granite worktops and a terracotta floor, appliances include Bosch induction hob, oven, microwave and fridge/freezer. There is a Butler sink, useful large larder cupboard, guest cloakroom and utility room with a door to the garden. The conservatory/dining room connects to the kitchen and then through the sitting room via glazed French doors, allowing natural light to flood through. A full height decorative red brick chimney breast houses a Clear View wood burning stove. From here a further set of glazed French doors open to the playroom.

    On the first floor the principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, two with built in storage, and a family bathroom with walk-in shower and separate bath.

    Annexe/garage
    Two sets of wooden doors open to a double garage. A dual aspect office is situated at the rear, with lovely views over the meadow towards the river. There is a small kitchenette and cloakroom to one side. A wooden, external, staircase leads to a studio apartment above with en-suite bathroom.

    Outside
    The house is on the banks of the River Thames with 100 metres of river frontage and set in approximately 2 acres of grounds. Bordered by open farmland to the eastern boundary, the wild flower meadow is an exquisite extension of the garden. Paths are mown through creating delightful walks to the water's edge, with its pretty wooden jetty (10 metres long). Otters, kingfishers and deer are regular visitors, with the meadow being a haven for butterflies and dragonflies. The Thames Path runs along the far side of the river ensuring privacy (all measurements are approximate). There is ample parking for numerous cars on the gravel drive with a field gate opening to the meadow. There is also a good-sized metal garden shed.
