Rose Cottage is a thoughtfully reimagined 1930s single-storey home, fully renovated by an architect in 2024/25 with high-quality finishes throughout. The layout offers three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a generous open-plan kitchen/living/dining space with fireplace, and a separate sitting room with an open fire — ideal for relaxed, single-floor living. Practical touches include bespoke joinery, limestone and engineered oak floors, Amtico in bathrooms, and plentiful storage.
Outside, the professionally landscaped low-maintenance garden and timber garden building (with lighting and heating) extend living space and require minimal upkeep. A bespoke oak porch and direct access to adjoining woodland enhance privacy and rural charm, while a wide driveway provides parking for multiple cars. The property is offered chain free.
Mechanical and environmental features include double-glazed timber windows, a new boiler with a megaflow pressurised system, and a fully insulated loft with a fitted floor and ladder for easy access. Note the main heating fuel is oil (individual supply), and the original cavity walls are assumed to have no additional insulation — buyers seeking maximum energy efficiency may wish to investigate further. Broadband is average locally, but mobile signal is excellent.
Set on a quiet lane beside the 3,000-acre Nettlebed Estate, the cottage is a short walk from Nettlebed village amenities and good local primary schools. Henley-on-Thames and its mainline station are a short drive away, making this a peaceful, well-connected option for downsizers or families seeking countryside life with convenient access to larger towns.
