Enjoying a fabulous position on one of Maidenhead’s most desirable roads is this handsome family home, built in the Tudor Revival style and retaining many original features. The striking home has been in the same family for many years and has been beautifully maintained by the vendor, who has incorporated the character features including exposed beams and wall panelling, solid wood floors, ceiling roses and plasterwork and original fireplaces into the décor. Though modernised in areas, the house is now ready for a full renovation which poses a fantastic opportunity for the new owner to personalise to their own tastes. With its substantial floor plan, private setting on the Thames and views over the river, this house will make a truly exceptional home that’s perfect for entertaining.
The accommodation is generously proportioned throughout at more than 6500 sq ft, arranged over three floors and with great scope for further expansion (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). An imposing first impression is given by the inviting entrance hall, which is large and elegant and forms the centre of this impressive residence. This leads to the two formal reception rooms – a sitting room and separate dining room – plus a good-size home office/third reception room and the good-size kitchen. To the rear of the house there is a games room and a playroom with en suite bathroom with its own entrance, which could be used as accommodation for guest or an au pair. Upstairs there is a sizeable principal suite on the first floor featuring a dressing room and en suite shower room. An additional en suite bedroom joins a utility/laundry room, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the final two bedrooms and bathroom on the second floor where there is also ample eaves storage.
Outside
Chauntry Road is a sought-after no-through road, with Lex House situated towards the end of the road. The house occupies a generous plot with stunning gardens to the front and rear. There is excellent kerb appeal from the road, with the property approached over its own private block-paved driveway and sitting adjacent to a good-size lawn, bordered by a variety of mature trees. The rear garden is also lawned and leads from the house, which has a slightly elevated position, down to the banks of the river Thames over which there are lovely uninterrupted views over the water and to the opposite bank from the terrace adjoining the back of the house: The perfect spot for outdoor entertaining. The property is secured from the riverbank by an iron fence inset with a gate for access, and also benefits from a private mooring. In addition to the off-street parking there is also an attached single garage.
Situation
The property is conveniently located in the parish of Bray between Maidenhead town centre and the river Thames, within easy reach of a wide variety of amenities. Maidenhead station and centre lie approximately 1 mile from the property. There is a range of cafes, bars and restaurants accessible locally, primarily centred around the regenerated Waterside Quarter in Maidenhead, but also within the lovely neighbouring village of Bray which has several highly regarded restaurants. Norden Farm Arts Centre has a thriving community programme as well as regularly hosting shows and events and there are further theatre options in Windsor. A modern leisure centre, sports clubs and a nature reserve can be found at Braywick Park and there are ample water sports opportunities at Bray Lake and on the Thames. Maidenhead has a mainline railway station that connects to London Paddington. It is also served by the Elizabeth Line which provides direct access to the West End, City and Canary Wharf.
