House For Sale £2,750,000
Ossicles is a stunning and unique house. Large open plan spaces
are cleverly separated by glass to offer distinct reception areas.
There is an overwhelming feeling of light and space that is
enhanced by the dramatic vaulted ceilings and large amount of
glass. The property is entered through a large front door into the
vaulted lobby where the glass walkway above leads to a partially
suspended study. The kitchen and dining area have not sacrificed
style over practicality and the kitchen accommodates a wall of
lacquered cabinetry with Kuppersbush appliances housed within.
A limestone terrace runs the length of the dining and reception
area with a wall of glass doors that open completely, to give the
sense that the garden is an extension of the house.
The principal bedroom suite is located on this upper level and
reached via a corridor with bespoke built in wardrobes, en suite
bathroom and bedroom with vaulted ceiling and private balcony
with wonderful views across the gardens. At garden level the
remaining bedroom accommodation is found offering two guest
suites and two further bedrooms which are served by a family
bathroom all with their own individuality and style. Each bedroom
has the benefit of a sliding glass wall that gives wonderful views
and immediate access to the gardens.
Gardens and grounds
Ossicles is approached through electric gates and up a gravel
driveway. The gardens, (approx 0.6 acres) are predominantly laid
to lawn with established shrubs, trees and borders. Planning
permission was granted for a double garage designed to
compliment the house. (Now lapsed but can be reapplied for).
Set in the Chiltern Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Ossicles offers the peace and quiet of a small hamlet but the
convenience of being just over 40 miles from Central London.
The nearby villages of Witheridge Hill and Stoke Row offer basic
amenities as well as several excellent pubs. Slightly further afield
is the popular market town of Henley-on-Thames which provides
further shopping and recreational facilities, with a wide range of
cafes and restaurants, theatre and a cinema. Reading and Twyford
have an excellent commuter rail service to London Paddington
with Crossrail anticipated to open Spring 2022.
Henley-on-Thames 7 miles, Reading 10 miles and Central
London 43 miles. M4 Junction 8/9 is 15 miles and M40 Junction 6 is 10 miles. Reading and Twyford has an excellent commuter rail service to London Paddington with Crossrail due to arrive in 2019. Heathrow 30 miles.
