ARDEN COTTAGE
Arden Cottage is a Grade II quintessential English cottage which sits prettily in Henley High Street amongst other similar period homes. The property boasts much charm and beautiful original features typical of its age including exposed brickwork, period beams, stained glass and flagstone flooring to name but a few. The cottage has grown over many years and no doubt changed with each passing century, with a more recent addition by the current owners who have graced the rear of the property with a very special summer sitting room.
