Remenham Court is an historic landmark property uniquely situated overlooking the River Thames and Henley Royal Regatta course. This well-known Grade II Listed property has formed part of the back drop to Henley-on-Thames since it was built in the early 19th century. Iconic and beautiful in its façade, this house has been under the same ownership since 1990, but was also owned in the past by Sir Miles Thomas who became Lord Thomas of Remenham - he was the Managing Director of Morris Motors and later chairman of BOAC.

The property offers stunning reception and entertaining space and the principal rooms have a perfect vantage point to view both the Thames and Regatta.

Having been a much loved family home for many years, Remenham Court now offers scope for updating and modernising to create a unique property fit for modern day living.

The accommodation features an expansive interior with beautiful high ceilings, period details, original fireplaces, and a spectacular reception hall, sweeping staircase, open fireplace, and black & white chequerboard tiled floor. There is a lovely pillared entrance portico leading through the to the main accommodation which is on the ground and first floor. Accessed from the main hall are the drawing room and dining room - magnificent rooms opening through to the orangery which has spectacular south westerly views. There is an additional entertainment room on the ground floor enjoying fabulous views - this beautiful home has at times been used to host private events. The kitchen/breakfast room is comprehensively fitted with a range of built in units, range cooker and appliances.

On the first floor there are five bedrooms (two with en suite bathrooms) and the two main bedrooms have beautiful sweeping bay windows enjoying the location and views. In addition to the main accommodation there is a cellar and second floor with further bedroom and bathroom.

GARDENS & GROUNDS
Remenham Court is approached via a pillared entrance with double wrought iron gates. The drive splits leading to the main house one way and the Entrance Lodge, garaging and outbuildings to the other. A paved terrace provides a wonderful entertaining space with a pergola and steps leading to the ornamental pond and lawns beyond. Well screened by a mature brick wall providing a south-facing private garden. There are further areas of well-manicured lawns, beautifully maintained affording an pretty backdrop the main house.

To the front of the house is a meadow which the current owners let during Henley Royal Regatta period. This has provided an excellent financial return for the past 25 years.
