The Old Bakehouse needs to be visited in person to wholly appreciate just how special and unique its surroundings are. The setting is rural but not isolated, and the gardens have glorious, uninterrupted views to the rear of the privately
owned Bosmore Estate. They are laid mainly on the lawn with lovely herbaceous borders, an orchard and terracing close to the house. The gardens are entirely private and not overlooked from any side. They face in a northwesterly
direction but with lots of southerly sun. The skies are dark at night and a full panorama of the stars is viewable from all round the garden. There is a custom built tree house and mud kitchen at the end of the garden as well as the aforementioned office space above the garage, ideal for those wishing to work from home. The current owners
acquired additional land from the neighbouring estate to extend the garden, adding a vegetable garden and an upper lawn terrace, again affording magnificent views of the surrounding countryside.
Old Bakehouse is situated in the pretty rural hamlet of Fawley, just a short drive from Henley-on-Thames, with its restaurants, comprehensive leisure facilities, boutique shops, supermarkets and coffee shops, and other extensive amenities. It enjoys far-reaching, unrestricted views with rolling countryside and mature woodland, all within an Area of Outstanding Natural
Beauty.
The towns of Marlow, Henley and Oxford are also close at hand for comprehensive amenities as well as easy access to both the M40
and M4. A rail service to London Paddington from Reading Station takes around 22 minutes and is linked by a branch line to Henley-on-
Thames. There are excellent independent schools in the area including Wycombe Abbey, Rupert House, Shiplake College, Wellington College, Eton and Queen Anne's School, as well as local kindergarten, primary, secondary and grammar schools. The wonderful and unique Denning Montessori School can be found just a short walk away in Fawley Village Hall, where children partake in weekly forest school.
Boating is available on the River Thames at various locations along the prime stretch, including the Royal Regatta course at Henley-on-
Thames. Marina facilities are also available at Mill End, Harleyford, and Wargrave. Fawley is close to several villages with popular pubs and wonderful surrounding countryside walks.
