Description

This detached period home, located at the northern edge of a quaint village, offers stunning views over expansive fields and rolling valleys, alongside approximately 1.7 acres of land featuring two paddocks. Built with traditional brick and flint, the property boasts numerous original characteristics that enhance its charm while presenting considerable renovation potential. Inside, a welcoming hallway leads to a sizeable living room highlighted by an inviting inglenook fireplace and oak-beamed ceilings. The living space flows seamlessly into an office area, dining room, and access to a staircase leading to the first floor. The open-plan design integrates the kitchen with cream cabinetry and tiled flooring, featuring integrated appliances that blend traditional aesthetics with modern functionality. The first floor features two spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom equipped with both a separate shower and characterful elements like exposed beams. Both bedrooms provide delightful views of the garden and paddocks, while built-in storage adds convenience. The property holds significant potential for extension or reconfiguration, subject to obtaining necessary planning permissions—ideal for investors seeking to enhance its accommodation capacity. Outside is a south-facing terrace accompanied by a charming cottage garden that includes mature trees. An informal garden area leads to seating that captures breathtaking landscapes across the paddocks. Also included are two fenced paddocks, a barn/outbuilding, and a field store. Nestled in the scenic Hambleden Valley—a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty—the location provides access to local amenities such as pubs in Skirmett and essential services in nearby Hambleden. The vibrant towns of Henley and Marlow boast various shops, cafes, restaurants, as well as cultural venues. With excellent transport links available from Henley via Twyford to London, alongside being within the grammar school catchment area for Marlow, this property not only invites personal touch but also presents strong investment prospects amidst beautiful countryside.
