Casa, Henley Road, Wargrave, Berkshire

The Riverstation occupies a rare and enviable position on the banks of The River Thames with an exceptional outlook. Enjoying a raised, commanding position and clad in stylish dark timber, it offers over 3,100 square feet of accommodation across two floors. Modern in its design having been built in 2008, this hasn’t stopped the current owner from significantly investing recently with a ”no-expense spared” complete renovation in a number of key areas, replacing all the bathrooms, refurbishing the kitchen and installing a new and energy efficient heating and air-conditioning system to name but a few of the improvements carried out.

On the ground floor, the spacious, open, layout draws immediate focus towards the river and the rural views beyond, allowing a great deal of flexibility for how each space might be utilised depending on requirements. Across the entire
rear of the property are doors and bi-folds allowing immediate access onto a raised deck terrace overlooking the river. A large, centrally located, entrance hallway leads firstly to two linked reception rooms, of which both contain bespoke, fitted, wooden display cabinetry and shelving, with the larger of the two also benefiting from being river facing with bi-fold doors. The recently renovated kitchen centres around a substantial quartzite island and breakfast bar, with space for a breakfast table positioned for river views and direct access out to the terrace. It’s complimented by high-end, integrated Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, wine fridge and powerful overhead extractor. Off the kitchen is a modern utility and laundry room providing direct access to the integrated double garage and finally a guest toilet completes the ground floor.

Upstairs on the first floor, via a feature, stainless steel, oak and glass staircase and wide galleried landing, are four double bedrooms, all with recently replaced, stylish en-suite bathrooms. The two rear facing bedrooms have the advantage of sought-after river views, made even better owing to double doors and glass Juliette balconies to fully harness the aspects and positioning. The principal bedroom has not only a walk-through wardrobe but also the largest of the four bathrooms containing double basins and a separate bathtub as well as shower. Of particular note is the efficiency of the property due to roof mounted solar panels, a filtered air exchange and circulation system, combined with newly installed air source heat pumps for the underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout.
