Description
Datchet Mead is a charming Grade II listed, rethatched cottage located in the lovely village of Henham.
Set back from the road, the house is centrally positioned within its plot and is approached up a smart gravelled driveway which can accommodate parking for multiple vehicles.
Entered through a pretty front door into a charming hallway, there is a lovely open family room and dining area with a beautiful inglenook fireplace. The bright family room is dual aspect and well proportioned.
There is a versatile room at the front of the house which is currently used as a ground floor bedroom but could easily be used as a tv snug/study etc.
The galley kitchen enjoys pretty views onto the garden and is fitted with a useful pantry cupboard.
Adjacent to the kitchen, is the lovely modern extension currently used as the main reception room which leads to the garden. The flooring is a beautiful parquet oak and a stylish wrought iron spiral staircase leads to the principal bedroom. Leading through a second door, there is a family bathroom on the ground floor situated between the family room and main reception. Overall, the ground floor has a good flow and each space is comfortable and well proportioned. Subject to planning, for those wanting a larger kitchen area, there is potential to move it into the modern extension.
Upstairs, the property has four bedrooms with the principal bedroom having a stylish en suite.
Outside, the garden have been very cleverly landscaped and has two zones, ideal for outdoor entertaining. The first area, leading from the house, is fitted with easy to maintain artificial grass and has steps leading to the garden beyond and adjacent annex building. This is a very useful store room currently and is fitted with electricity, a WC and sink.
The second area is a generous lawned garden with mature hedges and pretty flower beds.
Overall, Datchet Mead is a very pretty and well maintained 17th Century Cottage with a wealth of period charm. The exposed beams are beautiful and the thatch is in good order.
