Badgemore, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, RG9

Upon entering Cherry Orchard, the entrance lobby leads to both the study and the cloakroom before opening into the spacious reception hall, which provides access to the principal reception rooms and the bedroom accommodation via a double height staircase. At the heart of the home lies the open-plan kitchen/dining/family area—a truly inviting space that features an open fire, underfloor heating and large sliding doors that open onto a terrace, offering seamless indoor-outdoor living and views of the beautiful south facing rear garden. This is the perfect hub for family gatherings and entertaining guests. The stylish kitchen is well-equipped with a range of integrated storage cupboards and appliances, and is complemented by a practical utility/boot room (with adjoining plat room), which offers access to the garage and vegetable garden, as well as a cozy family room.

The elegant sitting room, also with an open fire, is bathed in natural light from a large window, framing views over the garden, and features bi-folding doors that open directly onto the terrace.

A stunning feature of the property is the large picture window at the top of the staircase, which floods the first-floor reception hall and gallery landing with natural light. This floor accommodates the principal bedroom suite, complete with a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Three additional bedrooms are also found on this floor, all served by a family bathroom and a separate family shower room. On the second floor, two further bedrooms—both with en-suite bathrooms—offer private, versatile living spaces for family members or guests.

Outside
Cherry Orchard is approached through solid wooden gates, leading to a winding driveway that meanders through beautifully maintained mature gardens, with a spacious parking area in front of the house. A detached double garage sits at the end of the driveway, offering plenty of storage space, with a rear store room for added convenience. Behind the garage, a semi-walled vegetable garden provides an ideal setting for home-grown produce, featuring raised beds, a greenhouse, and a dedicated cutting garden. The main lawn at the rear of the property is a tranquil haven, framed by mature trees and shrubs, offering both seclusion and beauty. A raised terrace runs across the back of the house, providing an elevated view of the expansive garden—an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond a well-established hedge, the grounds extend further, where some magnificent, mature cherry trees—after which the property is named—stand proudly, adding a touch of charm and character to the overall landscape.
