5 bed detached house for sale

Parkside, Henley-On-Thames, Oxfordshire RG9

Originally constructed by Berkeley Homes in 1989 and refurbished in the past 10 years to provide a fantastic family home. Windmill House is one of just five homes on one of Henley-on-Thames's premier roads.

The house has been extensively refitted by the current owners, who commissioned a stunning kitchen/breakfast room extension and a full redesign throughout. The upgrades include contemporary flooring, triple-glazed windows, and a complete internal specification overhaul featuring a Loxone home management and lighting system.

The bespoke Snug kitchen is beautifully appointed with high-quality Gaggenau ovens and hob, ceramic worktops, underfloor heating, a coffee/bar station, and wide bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace, garden, and walled swimming pool area.

The principal sitting room features an impressive open fireplace and tilt-and-turn windows, while the main bedroom suite enjoys light oak flooring, a spacious en suite bathroom, and a fitted dressing room. The remaining bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation, complemented by a superb self-contained flat above the triple garage.

Windmill House is approached via a gravelled driveway with a turning circle and ample parking. A striking African bean tree creates an attractive focal point at the approach, while the mature and well-screened garden borders provide a sense of seclusion. A charming lavender border frames the front of the house.

The rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn with established planting and borders, offering both greenery and privacy. Beside the front entrance stands a railed monument - the remains of the former windmill, from which the house takes its name.

The excellent swimming pool is partly enclosed by a brick wall and is conveniently visible from the kitchen, allowing for easy family supervision. A spacious pool house/store contains the gas-fired pool boiler and filtration system, with an additional garden shed adjacent.

Windmill House is situated within easy walking distance of the town centre and vibrant Market Place, whilst bordering woodland and open fields on the edge of Henley.
