Location
Located in a spectacular setting on a private road in Lower Shiplake, a substantial riverside residence with enormous potential.
Charleston occupies one of the best riverside locations in the area. The property has been under the same ownership since it was built in 1965 and now offers a new owner the opportunity to recreate their dream home.
The front door opens into an entrance hall that leads through to the stunning vaulted drawing room. The galleried hall steps down into the drawing room where this is a feature fireplace with gas fire and French doors leading out on to the garden and river beyond.
Off the hallway is also the kitchen and separate dining room which has direct river views. The kitchen has been recently re-modelled with an array of base ad wall wooden units and a garden facing breakfast area. Leading off the kitchen is the utility room and back door.
Retuning to the galleried hallway is access to the bedrooms. The principal suite takes full advantage of the river views and offers an en suite bathroom and dressing room. There are a further 3 bedrooms (2 en suite) and a family shower room. In addition there is a study overlooking the front garden.
Outside the front garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees offering privacy. To the rear is the delightful river garden with a raised terrace off the house and a mooring. The boathouse has easy river access and a slipway on to the river. There is also a workshop and two garages.
Across the river there is a shared island which can be reached by boat.
