The property is reached via a brick path, leading to a porch with a tiled pitched roof and door opening into the sitting room. The sitting room has a lovely inglenook fireplace, exposed ceiling timbers, a Travertine stone floor, and a window looking over the front garden. From the sitting room are doors radiating to the kitchen, family room and stairs to the first floor.
April Cottage benefits greatly from a wonderful kitchen/dining room. This light and airy room has lovely views over the rear garden. The kitchen area has a range of wall and floor units beneath Corian worktops with a range of integrated appliances and a Travertine stone floor. There is ample space for a dining table and sitting area with French doors opening to the rear garden, perfect for open-plan family living.
Off the kitchen is a cloakroom with storage and WC and there is also access to the family room with extensive shelving and storage.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom hasan en suite shower room with underfloor heating. There are two further double bedrooms, and a family bathroom with bath, shower, and underfloor heating. All the rooms have delightful views over the garden and countryside beyond.

To the front of the property is a gravel parking area. Through a gate, you enter the garden that is laid to lawn with a brick paved path to the front door and is bordered by a mixture of fencing, trees and shrubs. To one side of the garden is a large garden studio with electricity and wifi, an ideal home office. The rear garden is enclosed by wooden fencing and a mixture of shrubs and flower borders. A paved terrace is accessed from the dining room, which leads onto the lawn, and a timber shed is to the end of the garden. Both the front and the rear garden have robot lawn mowers installed.


Russells Water is a charming hamlet in the heart of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. April Cottage is found just off the village green on a no-through road on the edge of Maidensgrove Common. The surrounding area is ideal for all country pursuits, including walking, horse riding and cycling. Parts of the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang were filmed here in the 1960s, around the duck pond.
The pretty market towns of Watlington and Henley are both just a short drive with a good range of shops and amenities, including a theatre and cinema in Henley itself. The larger towns of High Wycombe, Reading and Oxford are all within easy reach with excellent rail links. Good schooling in both the private and state sectors is available for both primary and secondary education.

Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
