West Street, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, RG9

A substantial detached property offering approximately 3,800 sq ft of accommodation

Description

132 West Street offers a generous and flexible footprint, with a number of well proportioned rooms and considerable scope for reconfiguration. The accommodation currently lends itself to being adapted into a modern home, or subject to the necessary planning, building regulation and any other relevant consents, there may be potential to divide the property into two residential dwellings.

The accommodation is centred around a notably spacious entrance and inner hall, which gives access to the principal living and bedroom areas. The main reception room is an impressive sitting room, while the adjoining dining room and kitchen provide good scale for entertaining and day to day living. There is also a large utility room and a home office. There are multiple bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for a purchaser looking to create a more conventional residential arrangement.

Outside, approached from West Street, a historic one way street set behind the Town Hall and Market Place the property is set back behind a brick and flint wall with wrought iron railings, with further wrought iron gates providing pedestrian and vehicular access.

To the front, there is ample parking and access to a detached single garage. Please note there is a right of way/access for parking for 130 West Street. For further information, please refer to the plan and speak with the office.

There is also a separate lawned area on the other side of the driveway, which could be landscaped further or potentially used for additional parking or storage, subject to any necessary consents.

There are two principal garden areas. A smaller garden lies to the south and is connected, via a paved walkway to the rear of the property, to the larger private enclosed garden beyond. The larger garden includes a substantial rear patio, with a path leading into a mature wooded area to the side.

Whilst the property would benefit from modernisation and reconfiguration, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire sizeable accommodation with considerable scope in the heart of town. Subject to the necessary planning, building regulation and any other relevant consents, the existing accommodation could be modernised and reconfigured to create a substantial contemporary home.
