House For Sale £2,250,000
A beautifully presented character house, full of original features and with a magnificent barn drawing room, set around a glorious courtyard garden.
Yewden Place - Yewden Place is a beautifully presented character house, full of original features including exposed timbers and open fireplaces. The magnificent vaulted drawing room has been converted from a 17th Century barn and there is an abundance of antique charm throughout the property combined with stylish contemporary fittings including a bespoke kitchen by Neptune. Nestled amongst other period properties, which were the original farm buildings to Yewden Farm, the property has been thoughtfully designed with a light and airy feel and charming courtyard gardens making the most of the sunny aspect. There are views across the Hambleden meadows and the River Thames and Hambleden Marina is within a short level walk.
From the courtyard, a door leads to the superb kitchen with a hand-made Neptune kitchen with an array of solid wood floor and wall cabinets. There is a central island, a cream AGA and limestone flooring. There is a comfortable dining area and a charming sitting room with vaulted ceiling, double aspect, open fire and library shelves. The stunning 27' long drawing room has been created from the 17th Century barn with exposed timbers, a roaring open fireplace, mezzanine study area (could be converted to a spacious bedroom 5 if required) and doors to the covered garden terrace dining area. There is a utility room and a further study on the ground floor with a cloakroom (this could be bedroom 4 if required).
Stairs to the first floor lead to two double bedrooms and a shower room. Up a separate staircase is the main bedroom with fine views over the valley. This has an ensuite bathroom and dressing area.
Outside - The large gravelled parking area leads to impressive wrought iron gates and into the walled courtyard. This is a glorious space, full of tumbling climbers, roses and richly planted flower beds, paved with brick and stone for ease of maintenance. There is a garage, currently used as an outside store, wired for power with potential to convert to a home office or studio (STC). A further paved terrace catches the afternoon sun. From the drawing room is an outside dining area, accessed via bifold doors and perfect for summer entertaining.
Situation - Mill End is a small hamlet between Henley-on-Thames (4 miles) and Marlow (5 miles). Henley hosts the annual Royal Regatta followed by the Henley Music and Arts Festival. There are many boutique shops, pubs and restaurants, a 3-screen cinema and the Kenton Theatre which was founded in 1805. Schools for all ages are well catered for and they include Rupert House, St Mary's, Moulsford, Cranford House, Shiplake college and Queen Anne's as well as shuttle links to Lambrook. Commuter links are excellent, with trains from Henley station arriving in London, Paddington in 43 minutes or via Twyford station into Paddington in approximately 25 minutes, with The Elizabeth Line further enabling cross City travel. Connection to the M4 via junction 8/9 offers fast links to the M25, M40 and Heathrow Airport, as well as to the West Country.
* Please note that there is a National Trust covenant on the property, as there is over almost the entire Hambleden Valley, to protect and preserve the integrity of the area.
