St. Katherines Road, Henley-On-Thames

A generous 3-bedroom detached mid-century modern home, in a quiet residential neighbourhood approximately 1 mile from Henley town centre. Benefitting from 3 reception rooms, a modern kitchen with roof lantern and a separate utility room, modern bathrooms, garage store, off-road parking and both private front and rear gardens.

A further door leads into the inner hall, with laminate wood flooring. Glazed double doors open to the spacious sitting room, having both front and rear aspect. The room has wall-mounted uplighters as well as LED downlighters. A gas fire adds warmth and character (agent's note: the chimney flue has been lined so the fireplace could be converted to house a wood burning stove). The living room opens to the rear garden through glass French doors. Across the hallway is a further reception room, which would make a good family room or home office, with a window to the front.

From the hallway, a door opens into the open-plan kitchen/diner with bi-fold doors out to the garden. The dining area would fit an 8-10 seater table, and conveniently opens into the recently refitted modern kitchen with a large roof lantern providing natural light and with a range of white gloss wall and base units.

Beyond the kitchen lies the laundry utility room, with a sink, cabinets, and electric control for the Velux window. There is a gas boiler that has a pressurised hot water cylinder, and a washing machine and tumble dryer. An external UPVC door opens to the side of the property. An internal door leads to the garage storage area, with an up-and-over door.
