Description

"An elegant riverside home with Thames frontage, beautifully landscaped gardens, and exceptional living and entertaining spaces in a stunning Moulsford setting

Description

Sowberry Court, believed to have been built by Boshers and extended in the 1980s and 1990s, is accessed through an oak front door leading to the entrance lobby and music room beyond. This large reception area features an open fireplace and doors to the outside terrace. The ground floor offers extensive family and entertaining space, including a large drawing room, snug, morning room, sitting room, and dining room. Additionally, there are two kitchens, a utility room, two WCs, a pantry, and access to a workshop garage.

A sweeping staircase leads to the galleried landing, where the principal bedroom is located. This bedroom includes two bathrooms, a dressing area, and a separate dressing room study, with doors opening to a balcony. The first floor also features a large billiard room. The guest bedroom has an en suite bathroom and dressing room, while five further bedrooms share three additional bathrooms. There is also a separate WC on the first floor, as well as a second staircase to the ground floor.

Sowberry Court is approached through a pair of stone gate piers with cast iron gates, leading to a predominantly tarmac and partially paved driveway with ample parking. A paved terrace on the eastern side of the house descends to extensive lawned gardens, with further steps leading to the former grass tennis court lawn. The gardens are flanked by well kept woodland and shrubbery and include a former outdoor swimming pool. The grounds extend to the river, offering approximately 132 meters of river frontage along one of the prettiest stretches of the Thames, with excellent boating opportunities and a boat mooring. To the rear of the house, there is a large double garage with electric doors and a separate adjoining garden store.

Land Swap The owners of Sowberry Court have been in discussion with the owners of Sowberry Lodge the neighbouring property in relation to a land swap the area shaded yellow on the plan currently in Sowberry Court ownership would be transferred to Sowberry Lodge in return for the land shaded pink on the plan currently owned by Sowberry Lodge and benefitting from a right of way by foot over part of Sowberry Court land being transferred to Sowberry Court and the rights of way extinguished. It is intended that this arrangement be included in the sale contract for Sowberry Court and that the relevant transfer deeds be concluded between the buyer and the owners of Sowberry Lodge, following completion of the sale of Sowberry Court.

In all about 5.40 acres.
