Description

This beautiful Grade II Listed detached residence, Ancastle House, is nestled in private south-facing gardens with a heated swimming pool, double garage, and parking, just a short walk from central Henley. The property boasts a rich history, with its timber-framed construction dating back to around 1580, featuring oak beams, lattice windows, and two inglenook fireplaces, including one with an original bread oven. The house has been extended on the west side, forming a kitchen/breakfast room, and offers a spacious first floor with two rooms perfect for an au-pair or additional bedrooms or studio/home office. The property is situated in an elevated position, overlooking the town center, with well-screened gardens arranged over three tiers, each with a door from the cottage. The sheltered heated swimming pool is surrounded by flower borders, and the patio is ideal for entertaining. With its prime location in the heart of Henley-on-Thames, Ancastle House offers easy access to excellent shopping, restaurants, and amenities, including the prestigious Leander Club, well-supported Rugby Club, and Phyllis Court, a private members club.
