LOCAL INFORMATION
The Old School sits amongst other character properties in the small and sought-after village of Harpsden, nestling in a gentle valley surrounded by some of South Oxfordshires prettiest countryside. This Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a popular filming location where productions include the Midsomer Murders TV series and parts of the James Bond film Quantum of Solace have been filmed. The village has a number of local activities and is also home to the well-regarded Henley Golf Club; there is a gate in the gardens of the Old School leading directly onto the 18th hole. Henley-in-Thames is just a mile distant and provides a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities including riverside pubs and restaurants, a Waitrose, independent delicatessens and cafés. Henley Railway Station has a service to London, Paddington (from 45 mins) with Crossrail allowing direct access to the City, Canary Wharf, the West End and Heathrow from 2019. The area is well served for schools, including Shiplake College, Reading Blue Coat, The Oratory and Queen Anne's in Caversham. The M4 is about 7 miles away and connects to the M3 and M25 motorway network. The adjacent countryside offers miles of extensive walking and riding.
ACCOMMODATION
The Old School was built in 1857 by the Hall family of nearby Harpsden Court and finally closed its scholastic doors in 1996. The current owners have undertaken a full and stylish refurbishment of the property with great care taken to preserve the character and features of the building. There are latch doors, dado rails, lofty, vaulted ceilings, arched doors, wood panelling and a wonderful feeling of light and space. The original school room has been turned into a magnificent drawing room with stripped wooden floor, wood burning stove, 26ft high vaulted ceiling with window lights, half wooden panelling and doors to the conservatory which lead onto the garden. From the drawing room, full height arched folding doors lead to the superb kitchen/breakfast room with polished floorboards and open fire. Steps lead up to the kitchen, beautifully fitted with a good range of floor and wall units, 2-oven black AGA, granite work surfaces, island breakfast bar and arched windows to front and side. From the dining room a spiral staircase leads up to a mezzanine study area lit by roof lights and with views over the hills. There are 3 further reception rooms; a dining room with Victorian fireplace, cosy study and lovely sitting room with doors to the terrace and garden. There is also a utility/boot room and downstairs cloakroom with shower. On the first floor, there are 4 bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and a well-appointed family bathroom.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Within the meaning of the Estate Agents Act 1979, the vendor of this property is an employee of the LSLi Group.
OUTSIDE
The South-facing gardens of the Old School are a wonderful feature and have been cleverly landscaped and planted with specimen trees, perennial borders and hedging, giving privacy and seclusion. A large paved terrace is accessed from the conservatory, boot room and sitting room and there is a further decked terrace positioned to take advantage of the afternoon sun. There is a small pond and a further paved terrace edged with cottage garden plants. The lawns sweep round to a double length timber outbuilding/garage and there is a large gravelled parking area accessed through wooden gates to the side of the house. From the garden, a path leads up to a small gate which opens directly onto the Golf Course. There are numerous footpaths which criss-cross the golf course and lead to miles of outstanding walking directly from the garden of The Old School.
