Situated in the popular Chilterns village of Highmoor, a short ten minute drive into central Henley. Built in 2020 by the current owners, and further extended in 2022. This attractive detached bungalow has been built to a high specification with a particular focus on its environmental credentials. The property sits back from the road and is located next to Highmoor Cricket Club, and on the doorstop of public footpaths. The village pub, the Rising Sun, is a ten-minute walk away from this property.
A gravel driveway provides off-road parking for several cars, with a detached double garage. The exterior of the bungalow has been decorated with a classic Chilterns-style black wooden cladding. Under the canopied porch with porch light and to the part-glazed hardwood front door.
The property features a mechanical ventilation system and is heated via an air-source heat pump. With triple-glazed windows, Actis multi-foil insulation, and underfloor heating throughout the main accommodation, it has been designed to be very energy efficient.

The kitchen centres around a large quartz-topped island with breakfast bar, with a ceramic butler sink inset, and cupboards below. A space-saving corner larder unit provides useful storage. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, a 4-ring induction hob, a fridge-freezer and a Bosch oven with a separate combination microwave and convection oven above.
