5 bed detached house for sale Remenham Hill, Henley-On-Thames RG9

A magnificent conversion of a 19th century dairy barn to a state of the art house, immaculately presented to an exceptional standard and situated just one mile from Henley-on-Thames in the refined grounds of a private 18th century park.One of Henley’s most desirable addresses is the setting for this truly exceptional and highly individual house: The Dairy House is situated at the heart of Park Place Estate, enveloped by the stunning grounds including two acres of its own beautifully landscaped gardens. Far-reaching views look out over manicured lawns, wildflower-strewn meadows and landscaped borders, towards the polo grounds of the adjoining equestrian estate and the magnificent countryside of the Chiltern Hills beyond. The spectacular 7,000-square-foot residence has been transformed from a former agricultural building dating back to 1817 to a state-of-the-art house, infused with premium details and a Scandinavian vibe that feels fresh and contemporary. No expense has been spared in creating this superb house – a truly one-of-a-kind home that serves as a private oasis, far from the madding crowd yet within easy reach of cultural highlights, transport links and the City of London.Since 2017 the property has been subject to a full renovation and extension project by the vendor, affording substantial and versatile accommodation over two floors with underfloor heating throughout. The house is packed with exceptional features, from a temperature-controlled wine wall to a stunning Neptune kitchen, a fully equipped cinema room, a dining area with double-sided fireplace and a luxurious principal suite with a walk-in wardrobe and two en suite bath and shower rooms. The flexible ground floor layout is easily configured to suit the needs of the new owner, with a range of formal spaces for entertaining balanced by family rooms and two bedrooms which could equally be used as reception rooms. The main rooms are supported by extensive ancillary accommodation including two cloakrooms, a walk-in pantry, laundry room and workshop. In addition to the bedrooms on the ground floor, the principal bedroom has its own private staircase and loft space with scope for further development (subject to permissions), and there are two further bedrooms on a separate area of the first floor with built-in wardrobes, their own bathroom and additional loft space.OutsideThe two acres of beautifully landscaped grounds – including a Monet-inspired pond – feel like a private oasis, enveloping the house in a fabulous green aspect to the rear where there are two outdoor heated gazebos – perfect for capturing the evening sun – plus a croquet lawn, a lake and wildflower meadow brimming with colour and various species of wildlife-friendly pollinators. At the back of the house, nestled between the two extensions, an expansive terrace provides the perfect space for entertaining alfresco with far-reaching views over the polo grounds in the distance. The front of the house is accessed from a private lane via electric wrought iron gates, which open to a generous driveway, a three-bay car port with storage and a separate detached store. The front garden is equally as beautiful as the rear, planted with lavender hedge, standard roses and hydrangeas.SituationThe Park Place Estate is one of the area’s most coveted addresses, situated to the east of Henley and the river Thames.
