Situated in this peaceful corner of Henley, Bowling Court is a charming retirement development of bungalows centred around a pond, in delightful landscaped gardens.
Number 9 is a semi-detached property which has been thoughtfully and stylishly modernised. There are lovely views across the gardens and a private patio to the rear. Inside, there is a smartly fitted kitchen with a good range of cabinets, a dishwasher and washing machine and a breakfast bar. The spacious sitting room has a door to the paved patio and the garden. The main bedroom has great storage with floor-to-ceiling, bespoke wardrobes and there is a recently fitted bathroom with large walk-in shower and bidet.
The occasional second bedroom cum study has fitted cupboards and leads to the conservatory. This is a wonderful addition to the property as it gives lovely views across the gardens and is a useful extra reception room.
Bowling Court is accessed off the Fair Mile via a long drive which leads to the parking area where there is room for residents and visitors. A meandering path leads to the gardens and paved paths lead to the houses. The gardens are well-maintained with a full-time gardener and handy man and feature manicured lawns and perennial planting with roses and shrubs.
There is a central fishpond, around which there is a Tai Chi class for residents each week. The whole space is a peaceful escape whilst being just a level walk from the town.
Bowling Court lies on the edge of Henley-on-Thames, a vibrant market town situated in beautiful and unspoilt countryside approximately 35 miles west of London. The property is within a level walk of the town centre with its excellent shopping and cultural facilities which include small independent shops as well as bigger names, a weekly market, multi-screen cinema and theatre.
The town is world famous for the annual Royal Regatta held in July and hosts a renowned arts festival every summer. Henley, Huntercombe, Temple and Badgemore golf clubs are all close by and there is excellent walking beside the river and in the nearby Chiltern Hills.
