A rare Grade II listed medieval cottage in the heart of Henley-on-Thames, offered chain free. The 15th-century property retains abundant original timbers, exposed beams and period character across three floors, including a versatile loft room that can serve as a guest bedroom or home office.
The ground floor features a well-fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, granite worktops and polished wood floors, flowing to a cosy living room with a feature gas fireplace and rear access to a small courtyard. Practical additions include a tanked cellar currently used as a utility space and gas central heating.
This home suits buyers who value historical character and central convenience: shops, restaurants, riverside walks and excellent schools are moments away. Note the Grade II listing may restrict external and internal alterations, the plot is very small, and flooding risk is medium — important considerations for renovation or extension plans.
Other practical details: double glazing was fitted before 2002, the property is freehold and eligible for a residents’ parking permit. The cottage’s age and construction mean insulation may be limited and maintenance needs typical for a period property should be expected.
