Peppard Common, Henley-on-Thames, RG9

The Lodge is a beautifully crafted and newly constructed detached property set in the much sought after hamlet of Peppard Common. The property has been designed to have the external charm of a country cottage with a contemporary design within to cater for modern needs and makes the very best of its position drawing in natural light that filters throughout the house. The entrance hall hinges the principal reception areas and bedrooms neatly together. The sitting room, with solid oak floors, features an impressive open fireplace and French doors opening onto the garden. The oak flooring continues into the dining area which sits beneath a vaulted ceiling and lies between the sitting room and kitchen connecting these principal reception areas beautifully and a further set of French doors open onto the partly walled garden. The kitchen features an island unit and bespoke cabinetry housing integrated appliances and work tops of quartz and oak. Located off the kitchen is a larder and utility area with drying room. A further set of doors open on to a sunken terrace within the garden which acts as an extension to the kitchen. These reception areas combined, make a fabulous entertaining area. A mezzanine office with bifold oak doors nestles above the dining area and this, if required, could serve as a fourth bedroom. A further bedroom and bathroom lie beyond the study. An additional guest suite is found on the ground floor. The principle suite, with vaulted ceilings has excellent storage with a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with twin sinks, bath and shower.

Outside

At the front of the property is a gravelled parking area and storage along the side of the house. The enclosed partially walled south facing garden is delightful and wonderful sun trap. All reception areas of the house have direct access into the garden where there is an extensive pergola planted with climbing roses, Wisteria and Honeysuckle. With bench seating around a sunken garden and easy access from the kitchen, this area is ideal for alfresco dining.
