Turville Heath, Henley-on-Thames, Buckinghamshire, RG9

The approach is immediately impressive: a private gated driveway flanked by lawn edged with mature trees leads to a timeless façade that conceals a home of generous proportions and striking natural light. Upon entry, a wide and welcoming reception hall, with stairs to the first floor, opens to the principal living spaces — including a grand dining room, with patio doors, that opens into the living room with dual aspect garden views, statement fireplace with log burner and French doors opening to the terraces beyond. Two double bedrooms benefit with views out over the garden and share a ‘Jack & Jill’ style sumptuous ensuite.

The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room is a triumph of design and functionality — seamlessly blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary convenience. Adjoining utility and boot rooms offer discretion and practicality, while stairs lead down to the lower ground. Completing the ground floor off the entrance hall is a cloakroom. One particular point to note is that all the reception spaces benefit from a dual aspect with French doors to the outside.

Upstairs, the principal suite is nothing short of exceptional — featuring vaulted ceilings, a dedicated dressing area with ample built in cupboards, balcony and a beautifully appointed en-suite shower, offering complete privacy and indulgence. The guest suite is set to the opposite end and features an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and balcony. Two further bedrooms and additional bathroom continue the theme of generous proportions and fine finishes, making this a home of comfort as well as prestige.

The lower ground floor has been thoughtfully configured for recreation, wellness, and creativity. A gymnasium/garage, sauna and changing room offer a unique lifestyle experience — whether for fitness, artistic pursuits or car enthusiasts. Situated just outside to the rear is a cold rain water shower and ice bath. For those seeking inspiration or a quiet place to focus, the current owner has setup a fully equipped podcast studio/office with ensuite - a professional yet calming environment for creative work or content production.

Set within 1.62 acres of predominantly laid-to-lawn grounds, enriched by mature trees and surrounded by open countryside and ancient woodland, this exceptional property is a true sanctuary of organic living and holistic wellbeing. Designed to nurture both body and mind, the outdoor spaces blend natural beauty with purpose — featuring a serene ice bath, invigorating rainwater shower, and far-infrared sauna that harmonise perfectly with their tranquil surroundings. An organic garden provides seasonal produce for a genuine farm-to-table lifestyle, while a fire pit invites connection beneath the stars. A variety of peaceful seating areas encourage mindfulness and relaxation, all framed by woodland that enhances the sense of privacy and balance with nature. Complementing the main house, a detached summer house and garden shed offer flexible spaces for a private studio, wellness retreat, or quiet reading haven. Perfectly positioned near Henley-on-Thames, Marlow, and within easy reach of central London, this rare residence celebrates the seamless coexistence of nature, wellness, and understated luxury.
