Description
ABOUT THIS HOUSE
Tucked away in a wonderfully private and rural position, Bowden Wood is a stunning contemporary house, located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and only moments from the picturesque Thameside village of Pangbourne. In recent years the house has been significantly extended and remodelled to create a beautifully designed family home with light and bright rooms and stunning proportions. The kitchen is a particular highlight, with Mark Wilkinson units and a magnificent Falcon range cooker. This large open plan room has wonderful views over the gardens, with French doors leading out to the veranda and terrace seating area. There is also an attractive log burning stove, making this kitchen a warm and cosy hub of the house in the colder winter months. The Drawing Room is also a fabulous and substantial space with a large fireplace complete with log burner. The bedrooms are all of excellent proportions and the luxurious bathrooms are a triumph of beautiful tiling and stunning sanitary ware. The master bedroom is fabulous with views over the gardens at the front and back and complete with a balcony to take in the views. The gardens have been cleverly designed and landscaped, providing alluring and attractive outdoor spaces mixed with beautifully planted beds, large open lawned areas and attractive seating areas designed to capture the sun at all times of the day. Bowden Wood is a stylish home and a wonderful example of modern country living, in a tranquil rural position that is not remote.
