Stunning Grade II listed house set in landscaped gardens of about 3.41 acres.

Description

Boveney Court is an elegant Grade II listed building set in a secluded position in Dorney Village. Parts of this enchanting property date back to the 17th century. Period features include a gabled porch with a 4-centred stone archway between Tuscan pilasters, diamond leaded light casement windows and hall with a gallery and fireplace.
The later addition in the 20th century has created spacious, flexible accommodation over two floors. The more modern additions have been beautifully designed to blend period charm with contemporary kitchen and bathrooms. This has created a wonderful character residence.

On the ground floor of particular note is the oldest part of the building. The drawing room is entered via a studded door which opens into the double height drawing room with beamed walls and ceiling, full length gallery, parquet floor and impressive fireplace. The fine proportions of this space make it perfect for formal entertaining or family gatherings. At the end of the drawing room is the access to the sitting room in the north wing. In the west wing on this floor there are two further large reception rooms. At the heart of this wing is the modern kitchen. It has country styling with an extensive range of fitted units, integrated appliances which include two ovens, a full height fridge and freezer, wine fridge and large central island with breakfast bar. This room also has ample space for dining. The adjacent utility room has laundry plumbing fitted units. This floor is completed by a study and cloakroom.

On the first floor the principal bedroom is double aspect with fitted wardrobes and luxurious en suite bathroom with contemporary soaking tub and separate shower. In the west wing there are three further bedrooms (one with en suite), a shower room and bathroom. Accessed across the galleried walkway in the north wing is a further spacious bedroom with beamed walls and ceilings, feature fireplace and wood floor.

Entered via electric gates the sweeping gravelled driveway opens to an expansive forecourt. The mature established gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees. To the rear of the property a large sun terrace with decorative balustrade adjoining the house ideal for outdoor entertaining. The terrace commands a delightful view over the extensive lawn and planted beds ending with superb formal topiary.
