An absolutely immaculately presented four bedroom detached executive house in an exclusive close of only ten properties built in the 1990's.
The current sellers have thoroughly enjoyed living here for seven years and have extensively improved and upgraded the property in that time. Furthermore about three years prior to them moving in, the property was completely refurbished and extended to a very high standard by the previous owners. This included the addition of a superb brick built garden room/orangery with Velux style roof-lights, bi-folding doors and the whole room was built in a superb orangery style. Built with a feature vaulted ceiling the extension even features a top window with an inset sunray pattern.
At the same time a brand new bespoke handmade kitchen was installed by Davenport of Colchester. The kitchen features granite worktops and a central island with additional work area, breakfast bar and butler sink.
There is a utility room off the kitchen and also a delightful 15'6 x 15' double aspect lounge with patio doors overlooking the garden and featuring a wood/multi fuel burner inset in a stone surround.
There is oil fired central heating with a neatly concealed oil tank and the property has full UPVC double glazed windows and doors in a highly attractive style including leaded light and stained glass insets into the front main door. The patio doors from the lounge have only recently been installed.
Improvements by the current sellers include new replacement family bathroom, both en-suites and downstairs cloakroom with top of the range su
Summary Continued
On the ground floor there is an additional double size 12'5" x 12'1" separate playroom and a separate fully kitted out study/office with full width desk worktop area and fitted gloss eye level cupboards. If required, either or both of these rooms could be used as additional bedrooms turning this from a four to a six bedroom property.
On the first floor there are en-suites from both bedrooms one and two and fitted wardrobe cupboards in all of the bedrooms. An extensively boarded loft space is accessed from a feature gallery style landing. There is a very good roof height within the loft space and the current sellers considered the prospect of a conversion into additional accommodation to create a complete second floor. This could include dorma windows overlooking the rear and enjoying views over the farmers fields and villages beyond.
One of the main selling features of the property is that it backs onto fields with lovely views across the open countryside beyond. To the front of the property there is ample driveway car parking for up to eight vehicles and a detached double garage supplied with light and power and a boarded loft space area. There is a layby in front of the property which also accommodates three vehicles for visitors.
Henley village itself has a community hall with a pre-school, play area and football pitch. There are buses every two hours in one direction to Debenham going via Hemingstone and Crowfield and in the other direction is to Ipswich. Access to the A14 at Claydon is less than a ten minute drive away.
There is a thriving operational village church which has events and services. Henley itself is surrounded by delightful countryside. There is also a very good garage in the village and a primary school plus buses to both the catchment of Debenham and Claydon high schools.
The property also benefits from an osmosis filtered water drinking system and a separate water softener.
