Description
Occupying a charming riverside position, The Court House is set within approximately one acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, bordered by mature woodland. The extensive south-facing garden stretches down to the River Thames and features a private boathouse and slipway, creating an exceptional waterfront setting.
At the heart of the home is a stunning bespoke kitchen by Bakehouse, centred around a striking Neolith island with a contrasting walnut breakfast bar. A comprehensive suite of integrated appliances includes a Gaggenau induction hob with a rise-and-fall downdraft extractor, a Wolf steam oven with two warming drawers, Sub-Zero fridge and freezer drawers with a wine conditioner, Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer, and a Miele dishwasher.
Discreetly positioned behind the kitchen is a concealed tea station with a Zip boiling water tap, alongside a separate utility room fitted with a Miele washing machine, condenser dryer and additional sink.
Full-width bi-fold doors with flush thresholds open from the kitchen onto a generous split-level terrace, complete with a sunken hot tub and steps leading down to the garden.
A contemporary feature fireplace subtly divides the kitchen from the spacious living room, which also benefits from full-width bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.
The ground floor also includes a dedicated study, a media room and a cloakroom.
The first floor offers five generously proportioned bedrooms, including two with walk-in dressing rooms and three with luxurious en-suite bathrooms, complemented by a beautifully appointed family bathroom.
Approached via a private driveway, the property provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, side access suitable for small watercraft and a double garage with an EV charging point.
Designed with sustainability and comfort in mind, the home benefits from underfloor heating throughout, powered by an air source heat pump. Domestic hot water is supplied via two heat recovery units, while solar panels are complemented by three 3.5kW battery storage units to enhance energy efficiency.
For added peace of mind, The Court House is covered by a 10-year Global Homes Warranty and is equipped with a comprehensive security system including CCTV, an intruder alarm and fingerprint entry.
