2 bedroom apartment

A contemporary designed apartment overlooking the River Thames.

Description

1 Royal Mansions is a unique two bedroom apartment in one of the most prominent buildings in Henley-on-Thames. The apartment offers similarities to a ‘New York style loft' you may find in Soho or Tribeca with high ceilings, an abundance of natural light and vast proportions throughout. Royal Mansions sits on a prominent position along the River Thames and has recently completed a six year external refurbishment.

Arguably it's best feature is it's ground-floor position with floor to ceiling glass and direct views of the River Thames. The building offers a communal entrance hall with grand sweeping Victorian staircase to all floors serviced by a glass lift. There is also a rear disabled access, with a ramp leading to the ground floor. The apartment also has a top of the range computer control system which provides programmable lighting schemes, and can be used to control multi media entertainment.

Upon entering you are greeted by a glass atrium which floods the long hallway with natural light and can be used as a small courtyard. The long hallway with concrete floors and a shiny resin finish throughout the property leads to a vast reception room and the main living space in the home.

The contemporary kitchen is Italian made and has integrated appliances such as oven, microwave and fridge/freezer. It has been cleverly designed to be discrete with a row of tall units with vertical letterbox handles. This set up allows flexible living accommodation and a great space for entertaining guests. The sitting area sits adjacent and there are large glass windows and patio doors which open out into the front gardens and provide spectacular views across the River Thames.

Through a hidden doorway, which acts as a dividing wall, is a single bedroom with en suite shower room and access out into the rear garden. This space is ideal for a dressing room or study
area.

The principal bedroom which is accessible either via bedroom 2 or via the main hallway features an ensuite bathroom featuring an oversized bath, w.c and basin. The rooms have been cleverly designed and are split by via pods which are made from lower walls and false ceilings rather than traditional full height partitions.

Outside: The property has gardens to the front and back to take advantage of both aspects. The front has stunning views of the River Thames, manicured lawns, hedging and 4 small trees. A decked area sits off the main reception room and is ideal for al-fresco dining in the summer months.

To the rear is a more private setting and a rarity to find in such a location and is located off both bedrooms. It is predominantly laid to lawn with a small decked area and shrubbery acting as borders.
