Description
An immaculately appointed character home set within attractive countryside between Maidenhead and Reading, with a detached annexe, tennis court and 4.218 acres of land
The Coach House is a beautiful, detached family home situated in sought-after countryside, close to Maidenhead, Twyford and the M4 so ideally positioned for the commuter. The main house was built between 1900 – 1929 with later additions and extensions, with a newer detached annexe known as The Pancake House constructed in 2020.
The properties sit off a country road with wildflower meadows and mature gardens providing ample green space and a wonderful rural feel. The private entrance conceals the house from the road. With lovely views across the gardens and surrounding countryside, the house has impressively designed interiors featuring a wealth of premium features, presented to an exacting standard.
The detached annexe, itself beautifully imagined, offers potential for multi-generational living or an au pair, in addition to both long and short term lets and proves popular and highly rewarding during Ascot Racing, Henley Regatta and Henley Festival.
The main house has been subject to a programme of renovations in recent years, including new electrics, plumbing, drainage system and Cat 5 cabling to the study. The interiors have also been fully renovated, with the addition of underfloor heating, built-in wardrobes, bathrooms, flooring, kitchen cabinetry and work surfaces and full cosmetic redecoration. The result is a very impressive and stylish home with an extremely high attention to detail. The accommodation is generously proportioned and, thanks to large windows, enjoys good natural light. The versatile layout would be well suited to family life, with a choice of three reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room and five good-size bedrooms. The ground floor also has a spacious utility/boot room for laundry machines, while upstairs there are two bath/shower rooms, one of which is en suite to the principal bedroom.
Outside
The Coach House is situated within mature grounds of 4.218 acres in a private setting, with just one neighbouring house. A gated gravel driveway, shared by the main house and the annexe, leads to a large parking area, detached garage and annexe, which is situated a short distance from the main house making both properties feel secluded and not overlooked. The Pancake House has its own garden and courtyard areas, while to the rear of the main house are attractively landscaped lawned gardens enclosed by established trees, shrubs and hedges. It is a wonderful playground for both family and pets with ample room for camping, sports and outdoor entertaining.
There are terraces to the front and rear for garden furniture and, situated separately, a tennis court and two large wildflower paddocks that have been used as a cricket and football pitch, a motocross track, for camping and even live bands and private festivals. Additionally, there is a paved firepit area in the rear wildflower meadow with amazing year-round sunset views.
Situation
Beenham’s Heath is a small, semi-rural hamlet situated just north of the village of Shurlock Row, in an area famous for its equestrian pursuits particularly polo. Shurlock Row is a popular village with a public house, butcher, garage and cricket club. There are further amenities and convenience stores in Twyford and Hurst, while more comprehensive facilities, shops and superstores can be found in nearby Reading, Maidenhead and Wokingham. Locally there are many attractive country walks.
There are mainline railway stations in Twyford and Maidenhead with direct services to London, Paddington and both are served by the Elizabeth Line. The M4 (J8/9) is approximately 4 miles distant via the A404(M) providing access to Heathrow (approximately 20 miles) and the wider motorway network. Sporting facilities include 2 village cricket teams within a mile, several local golf courses, equestrian pursuits, mountain biking and boating on the Thames.
