FISHERIES HOUSE
BERKSHIRE
-
Fisheries House has a prime setting within the highly regarded Fisheries Estate, on a rare stretch of the Thames that benefits from a flood relief scheme and has not flooded for more than 20 years. The property is in an enviable position between Maidenhead and the neighbouring village of Bray, which is renowned for its cosy English pubs and array of Michelin-starred restaurants including the Fat Duck and Waterside Inn, which can be accessed via boat. Also accessible by boat or road in approximately ten minutes is the newly opened Soho River House members' club. Bray has day-to-day amenities while Maidenhead and Windsor have extensive shopping and services, leisure facilities and entertainment venues. Road communications are excellent, with the M4 J8/9 providing access to Heathrow Airport, London, the West Country and the M25. Elizabeth line services from Maidenhead are available to London Paddington (approx. 35 minutes).

The accommodation is incredibly light and spacious, with almost 8,000 sq ft of space over three floors, including a wine cellar and extensive storage space at basement level. The reception hall is a welcoming room for receiving guests, opening to a formal dining room, a music room to the rear leading out to the elevated terrace, a drawing room and study. In the family part of the house, which also has a separate entrance, a vast open plan kitchen and family room runs from front to back, incorporating a dining area, the beautifully appointed kitchen and a seating area to the rear. There's also a TV room for relaxing time as a family.
All of the rooms at the back of the house have access onto the rear garden, with the reception rooms opening to the patio and two of the bedrooms upstairs having their own private balconies with commanding views up and down the river. The principal bedroom is a particular highlight, with its two separate dressing rooms and en suite bathrooms the ideal space for couples. The remaining five bedrooms are all an excellent size and four are en suite, with the final bedroom having a dressing room and use of a family bathroom directly across the landing.
The house has been modernised throughout and is well equipped with an alarm, intercom system, two separate WiFi points and three phone lines.
