Description

Bramblings House is a stylish and thoughtfully enhanced modern home (10 years old), that has been carefully upgraded by the current owners to create a relaxed and welcoming countryside retreat in the sought after hamlet of Warren Row. Combining elegant interiors with excellent entertaining spaces and year round outdoor living, the property offers beautifully balanced family accommodation in a peaceful setting close to Henley on Thames and fast train services to London from nearby Twyford station.

The house features underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and solid floors on the first floor. Lifestyle upgrades include Neptune designed interiors, a woodburning stove in the main sitting room, contemporary exterior lighting, and yea round outdoor living with a bespoke enclosed aboveground heated summer pool set within a raised decked terrace. There is also potential to extend into the loft, with plans drawn for a conversion to create a fifth bedroom with en suite (subject to the usual consents).

The front door opens into a welcoming reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor. At the front of the house are a study and a family room, the latter of which could also serve as a formal dining room if preferred. The sitting room enjoys French doors leading out to the patio and garden and features a log burning stove, perfect for cosy evenings.

To the rear is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room/garden room, the true heart of the home. This spacious, beautifully designed area offers wonderful views over the garden. The Neptune kitchen includes a range of wall and floor units beneath a Corian worktop, a breakfast bar, and integrated appliances including a Rangemaster cooker, Butler’s sink, dishwasher and fridge.

There is ample space for a dining table, complemented by a built in seating area with clever storage beneath. At the far end, the garden room features a roof lantern that floods the space with natural light, along with a triple aspect and French doors opening onto the patio, ideal for open plan family living. A useful utility room is accessed from the kitchen, with a door through to the garage, and a cloakroom is located off the entrance hall.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area with built in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Bedroom two also includes an en suite shower room and built in storage. A family bathroom with a separate shower serves the remaining two double bedrooms.

Outside, a brick paved driveway provides parking for several cars and leads to the garage. The front of the property has been beautifully landscaped, with a lawned area to one side bounded by mature hedging and a variety of shrubs.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a generous paved terrace running along the back of the house. French doors from both the garden room and the sitting room open directly onto this area, creating a seamless indoor outdoor feel that is ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. An outdoor kitchen and a private seating area further enhance its usability.
