The Clock House is a unique split-level property, situated in a stunning position on a private road nestled in the Chiltern Hills, close to Henley-on-Thames. This pretty house is of brick and flint construction and has large entertaining spaces for family and entertaining. It is now in need of some refurbishment.
Of particular note is the main reception room with its full-height vaulted ceiling, wood burning stove and cast iron spiral staircase to a mezzanine study area. The kitchen is well fitted with a large AGA, gas cooker and larder. The dining area has a centre piece stone dining table. Beyond is the family room with a beamed ceiling and wood-burning stove.
The main bedroom suite occupies an entire floor and is large with a dressing room and a separate dressing area leading through to an open plan wet room and sunken bath. All the bedrooms are spacious and light and bright. There is also a study, further reception room and garden room.
From the lane, the property is approached down a private driveway through large double gates and into a private parking area. The property is set around a central courtyard with a charming Mediterranean atmosphere. There are areas of lawn, brick pathways and stone terracing with mature planting.
Standing in the highly regarded peaceful rural area of Henley Park, this most attractive area is nestled in the Chiltern Hills, surrounded by beautifully maintained private estate land, with rolling countryside and mature woodland, all designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The River Thames is nearby and the whole area is heavenly for walking, riding, country and river pursuits.
