Description

A stunning house with a self contained annexe and panoramic views of rolling hills.

Woodrise - Woodrise stands in a wonderfully private elevated position with panoramic views over stunning rolling fields and hills. The house has been designed to take maximum advantage of the views from all the principal rooms with a flexible layout which includes a self-contained annexe wing, ideal for blended family living and long term guests or home working. Throughout the house there has been exemplary attention to detail and quality ensuring an immaculate and luxurious feel, all the time being drawn to those views.

This split level property has a raised landing with two generous bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a striking living room that steps out to a private balcony terrace overlooking the garden and fields beyond. The lower ground floor has an additional living room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a secondary kitchen, This area lends itself to two self-contained annexes, ideal for multi-generational families or home help. One of the annexes steps out to a private section of the garden, but has been carefully and tastefully designed to also compliment the main house accommodation.

A bright open plan hall steps directly into the heart of the house, the open plan dining room and kitchen. From here, a split level hall/landing leads to the three main areas. The principal bedroom has floor-to-ceiling glazed doors leading out to the garden and into a large ensuite bathroom. A superbly appointed home office is also at this end of the house.

Gardens And Grounds - The property has a generous parking area to the front and side of the house with gentle sweeping steps leading up the front door. The rear garden is a standout feature, carefully laid out to compliment the beautiful fields beyond, arranged with a number of seating and dining areas from which to enjoy the views from various angles, and the garden continues providing plenty of space for garden furniture and planting.

Situation - Woodrise is set back from Widmore Lane which connects the heart of the village of Sonning Common with the more rural Blounts Court Road, offering both wonderful country walking in one direction and the superb facilities of the village in the other. Sonning Common itself has a vibrant community with local infant, primary and secondary schools as well as a useful selection of local shops including a butcher, and co-op store.

The larger centres of Henley on Thames and Reading are close by. Schools in the area include Queen Anne's, The Oratory, Reading Blue Coats, and Rupert House School in Henley on Thames. Golf Clubs include Henley, Badgemore Park, and Huntercombe and the immediate area has wonderful walking and riding in the Chiltern Hills.

Over the next 30 years, Giles and Nick earned a trusted reputation for their unwavering commitment to professional integrity and delivering exceptional service to their clients.

In 2021, the company entered an exciting new phase under the leadership of Matt Mannall, former head of Knight Frank's Henley-on-Thames office. With over two decades of experience managing high-profile property sales, Matt is dedicated to positioning Robinson Sherston as a truly independent alternative to larger firms. His vision combines personalized client service with innovative digital and creative marketing strategies, utilizing professional photography, drone footage, virtual tours, and video content to showcase properties effectively across digital platforms and social media.
