L'ancien Moulin

The Landstones Country House team are proud to present for sale this stunning waterside property, set on the banks of the River Thames at Temple Mill Island, just outside the beautiful historic town of Marlow.

This elegant and beautifully maintained period home, believed to date from the early 18th century, offers over 4,000 sq ft of flexible living space in a tranquil, secluded setting on the River Thames. Set within landscaped gardens and benefiting from a 76 ft private mooring with direct river frontage, this stunning double-fronted residence seamlessly blends period charm with modern convenience.

This impressive riverside property has been thoughtfully extended and improved over the years while retaining its original character and charm. The spacious layout includes five bedrooms and three bathrooms (two en suite) arranged over three floors, offering versatility for family life, guests or home working.

The property is approached via a gated gravelled driveway with ample parking and access to a large garage with an electric roller door. The front garden has been attractively landscaped, featuring a flagstone path and ornamental fountain. The garden also features a useful sprinkler system.

Situated in the sought-after riverside hamlet of Temple, the house is less than two miles from Marlow town centre, which offers an excellent range of boutique shops, national retailers, cafes and acclaimed restaurants. The Thames Path runs through the town, and the surrounding Chilterns countryside is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Recreational facilities abound, including golf, cricket, football and rugby clubs, while the Bisham Abbey National Sports Centre is just half a mile away. The area also hosts popular events such as the Henley Royal Regatta and the Henley Arts & Music Festival.

For commuters, Marlow and Maidenhead stations provide rail access to London Paddington, while the M4 and M40 motorways are easily accessible. Heathrow Airport is approximately 22 miles away.
