Beautifully constructed country house
Set in circa 18 acres
Set in an elevated position with far reaching views the gardens are a perfect mix of parkland and formal garden. The present owners planted over 750 trees throughout the gardens which provide a glorious mix of colours and work well with the larger mature trees surrounding the home and create a wonderful feeling of privacy. With pleached hornbeam, structural yew topiary, rotundas, all interspersed with further stunning herbaceous beds. An orchard of ornamental cherry trees planted in rows is underplanted with spring bulbs. A sunken garden features an informal parterre with a wisteria festooned walkway.
The house embodies the craftsmanship and traditions of the Arts and Crafts movement with the requirements of contemporary family living. An oak framework, hand-made bricks (incorporating herringbone brickwork) and tall chimneys, combine to replicate the traditional styles of the movement. Its soft tones and low roof lines allow the house to sit perfectly in its surroundings and could be mistaken for a home from the period.
Tucked away and set in almost 18 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and parkland, Mays Green Park is situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
A long drive meanders through immaculate parkland, surrounded by trees and woodland, to the welcoming front of the house. Deep herbaceous beds froth with mature planting with roses rambling over the walls. A garden door opens to a delightful, enclosed courtyard that is also accessible from three rooms in the house.
The terrace spans the side and rear of the house with far reaching views over the gardens, parkland and lake beyond. The lake, with mature vegetation around its banks, is a haven for wildlife including black swans, Indian Tree ducks and moorhens. A central fountain provides a lovely focal point that can be seen from the house. Although most of the land is presently immaculately tended parkland, it offers total flexibility of use and could readily provide paddock land for a variety of uses.
To the side of the house is a workshop, tractor shed and gardeners WC.
Despite being nestled away from view, the property has easy and swift access to road, rail and airport links. The M40 and M4 motorways are nearby. Presently Reading station offers a service to Paddington from 26 minutes. Now Crossrail is complete there is a direct line from Reading to the City of London. There is also a rail link from Shiplake, only two miles away.
There is a wide choice of schools, including Gillotts Academy School in Henley, Shiplake College, St Marys Prep School and Queen Anne's. Wellington College, Eton, Charterhouse, Marlborough College, Downe House, Harrow and Tudor Hall are all within easy reach.
The beautiful and historic market town of Henley is just 2 miles away with its pubs, restaurants, cafés and independent shops. It is also well served for everyday shopping requirements with its weekly markets, monthly farmers markets as well as 2 large supermarkets. Binfield Heath, just over 1 mile away, has a village shop and Post Office.
Home to the prestigious Leander Rowing Club, Henley also boasts two further rowing clubs, a rugby club and two tennis clubs.
Planning permission has been granted for: A two-storey courtyard in-fill extension, providing a large drawing room with two further bedrooms above, both with en suite shower rooms. A three-bay garage with boot room/lobby and laundry room connecting to the main house with a large games room above A two-bedroom cottage circa 2,500 sq ft In total the house would then provide 11.5/12,000 sq ft of living space with 6/7 bedrooms, five with en suite facilities.

Beautiful home and what an ideal setting and location!!
Cheers Hamilton, the setting is so so lovely. Something I am unlikely to ever be able to show property without taking someone there
This house is a dream and it is nice to have an estate agent who is professional. Thanks
What a pleasure to see you back Sir.... you have been missed. House and gardens are superb a real delight and your manner of home tours simply draws in the viewer. Excellent indeed.
That's so so nice... I was a little rusty but can't wait to show you more homes... thanks for hanging in there 🙏
Lovely home and grounds
Great that your back -
What a beautiful home 😊
Absolutely stunning! 👏
Thanks so much
Beautiful property and grounds. I watch a fair few home tours while waiting for my inevitable lottery win, and yours was very well done indeed. Your passion for great homes comes over wonderfully well, and whoever was filming did a lovely job too. Good luck with your new business.
Great job Tim, really enjoyed it. Glad you’ve taken the plunge and set up your own business… you’ll do well. Wishing you every success.
What a beautiful peaceful full place to stay , just wonderful,thanks 👍❤️🏴
What a dream of a house / home. Good luck to any person that can achieve the ownership, foresight, vision of such a lovely property. Out of curiosity, I would be intrigued to know the running costs. Its a joy to see the quality and design of the property. I especially like the brickwork that highlight the structure. Fair play to the owners for having the vision.
Lovely property. Perfection!
Great presentation! Fabulous house!
🔥🔥🔥
Oh, I just spotted the nose of a current shape Conti GT 😎
@@HamiltonJamesCars you are good!
About a mile from my house - absolute ripper!
Wonderful house and grounds. One thing, please put a capital letter on the word, 'Thames'. Thanks.
LOVE❤❤❤🎉
Dream home. If I win the lottery I'll be making a call to you with an offer.
look forward to it
Real wood floors would be so much nicer
One of the coldest, plainest and boring interiors I have ever seen. There is certainly nothing here to offend any prospective buyer.
Thanks Jeff.... im sure you are aware owners of these houses look at these comments too. As the saying goes... if you don't have something nice to say....
@@Tim_prime_property i think the interior is STUNNING, lots of lovely little quirks and beautiful wood work!
beautiful, tasteful and traditional in look.
@@HamiltonJamesCars I totally agree.. thanks ☺️
Sorry to say but I can only assume that you lack taste.
@@resnonverba137 you must be the owner!
