5 bed detached house for sale

Northfield End, Henley-On-Thames, Oxfordshire RG9

A beautifully curated Grade II listed residence of immense charm and character. Tucked away behind solid automated gates in one of the most desirable residential settings within Henley-on-Thames, the property enjoys an enviable sense of privacy and tranquillity whilst remaining only moments from the vibrant town centre and the River Thames.

Accessed via a private gated courtyard providing generous covered parking, the house has been thoughtfully reconfigured to suit modern family life, with the everyday entrance leading through a superb boot and coat room complete with underfloor heating.

At the heart of the home lies the luxurious hand-built kitchen, expertly designed with bespoke cabinetry, integrated appliances and a traditional aga, creating both a highly functional family space and a natural gathering point for entertaining. The kitchen flows into the central hallway, which links the principal reception rooms and provides access to the utility room, cellar and first-floor accommodation.

The reception space is particularly impressive and wonderfully versatile. The magnificent vaulted sitting room is undoubtedly one of the home’s defining features, filled with natural light from a large picture window overlooking the gardens and centred around a charming wood-burning stove. Complementing this is a more intimate snug sitting room, ideal for quieter evenings or relaxed family living, alongside an elegant dining room perfectly suited to both formal entertaining and everyday use.

A particularly valuable addition is the fully self-contained home office, complete with its own independent entrance and cloakroom, offering exceptional flexibility for those working from home, running a business or seeking ancillary accommodation separate from the main house.
On the first floor, the beautifully proportioned principal suite provides a luxurious private retreat with a dressing room and well-appointed bathroom. Four further bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom complete the accommodation.

Behind the scenes, a sophisticated multi-room Bang & Olufsen sound system has been installed, seamlessly integrating modern technology without compromising the home’s elegant aesthetic (to be negotiated separately).

The gardens are a particularly special feature and provide a wonderful extension of the living space.
Surrounding the house on three sides, they have been beautifully landscaped to create both privacy and year-round interest. A substantial stone terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, leading onto level lawns framed by mature planting and established borders that create a peaceful and secluded environment.

Discreetly integrated bose speakers extend the music system into the gardens, allowing effortless entertaining both inside and out.

The location is equally compelling. Northfield End is regarded as one of Henley’s most sought-after residential areas, offering immediate access to the town’s renowned boutiques, restaurants, cafés and cultural amenities, including its cinema, theatre and weekly market. The River Thames is just a short stroll away, while nearby footpaths provide direct access into the beautiful surrounding Chiltern countryside. The property is also conveniently positioned for the highly regarded Phyllis Court Club and Henley Hawks Rugby Club, further enhancing the exceptional lifestyle offering this remarkable home provides.
