Full Details for 6 Bedroom Detached for sale in Henley-on-Thames, RG9 :
Barnfield was architect-designed and built in 1968 and is a tribute to the open plan, split-level style of the time. With large picture windows letting in an abundance of light, the property takes advantage of the peaceful setting and wonderful gardens which surround it. Arranged over three floors and with over 3,200 sq ft of accommodation, there is a flexible layout which could be suitable for the extended family or those seeking a home/office lifestyle.
LOCATION
Located off The Fairmile, Barn Lane is a cul-de-sac a mile from the centre of Henley and a largely level walk from all amenities. The historic riverside town of Henley-on-Thames has superb facilities including a Waitrose, individual cafés and restaurants, a fine variety of shops and public houses and is home to the world famous Regatta. More comprehensive facilities can be found in nearby Reading and Maidenhead. Henley railway station provides a link to the mainline railway stations in Reading and Twyford with a fast service to London, Paddington (from 28 minutes) with Crossrail allowing direct access to the City, Canary Wharf, the West End and Heathrow from 2019. Connection to the M4 (J8/9) via the A404M is approximately 7 miles distant providing access to Heathrow (22 miles) and the motorway network. There is an excellent and varied selection of schooling in the area as well as sporting facilities including a number of fine local golf courses at Badgemore Park, Henley and Huntercombe. There are miles of walking along the Thames Path and over the surrounding countryside and rowing and boating on the River Thames.
ACCOMMODATION
Approached via a private, gated driveway, Barnfield sits comfortably in its plot, surrounded by landscaped gardens. The vaulted glass entrance hall has a door to the ground floor accommodation and stairs leading up to the reception hall. This has a large window overlooking the garden and a charming pebble feature creating a seamless illusion of bringing the garden into the room. There is a double length sitting room with a vaulted ceiling, currently used as a dining room, with a sitting room beyond. This has doors opening onto the deck and gardens. Stairs lead down to the library/games room and into the study. From the reception hall, with a cloakroom and coats cupboard, doors open into the kitchen/breakfast room. With a high vaulted ceiling, this was recently refurbished with stylish units, granite worktops and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, designer extractor fan, double oven and hob.
The breakfast area has a lovely view over the terrace and water feature and has a door that opens to the vine covered pergola. Off the kitchen, is a family or play room, fitted with bookshelves and with a door to the garden. There is a utility room with plumbing for washer and dryer and back door to the garden. From the hallway, stairs lead to the first floor and master bedroom suite. This comprises a bedroom with a range of fitted wardrobes, an en-suite bathroom and a further bedroom or dressing room. From the central hallway, stairs lead down to the ground floor accommodation which can also be accessed separately from the entrance hall. There are 4 bedrooms, a sitting room/bedroom 6 and two bath/shower rooms.

OUTSIDE
Part of the gardens of Barnfield were designed by the landscape architect, Peter Aldrington, and won an award for ingenuity and the clever use of brick terracing and water. There is a gentle sweep of lawns around the house which anchors it securely into the landscape. Mature Cedar, Beech and Yew trees provide privacy and seclusion and guard the entrance to the property. The driveway leads up to a large turning circle and to the spacious 4-car garage block with remote control doors. There is a substantial potting shed and a further brick built workshop. Accessed from the sitting room is the decking which is edged with a water feature with waterfall and carefully planted pond. The large herringbone brick terrace edges the pond and is accessed from the dining room, breakfast room and family/playroom.
There is a well-maintained swimming pool with an electric cover and pump housed in a further outbuilding which serves as a changing room with cloakroom. There is a productive kitchen garden with deep, richly composted soil keeping the current household self-sufficient in vegetables throughout most of the year. In all the gardens and grounds amount to about 0.89 acres.
