An Edwardian, 5 bedroom detached house occupying a large corner plot of approximately 0.4 acres with inground swimming pool, situated on the rural fridges of this sought after village.

This imposing detached house was built just after the turn of the last century by a local Henley on Thames based builder, JM Walden, and has a number of interesting and attractive architectural features in the design including a castellated topped bay to the front and half brick and rendered elevations.
Extended by the current owners around the start of the current century, adding a double height wing to the western side, yet still retaining the style and proportions of the original house.
The accommodation is arranged over 2 floors comprising of 3 large reception rooms, all with fire places and featuring decorative cornices and ceiling roses, plus a good-sized study/home office. The farm house style kitchen is fitted out with solid wood cabinets and granite worksurfaces, incorporating a Belfast sink, with spaces for appliances, plus there is a separate utility and cloakroom.

The master bedroom has a bay window with southerly aspect and dressing area, plus a large en-suite bathroom with separate shower and corner bath. Two further bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms with the remaining bedrooms sharing a family bathroom.
Heading outside, the rear gardens wrap around the side and rear of the property with a raised, paved terrace adjacent to the kitchen, with steps down to a large level lawn. This continues on to an enclosed area in which the inground swimming pool is situated. The pool is approximately 30’ in length and has Roman steps at one end, surrounded by artificial turf and with a raised bank on one side, with a timber pool plant shed close by. The garden has a variety of mature planting to the boundaries, providing a high degree of privacy.
