Rotherfield Garth: Henley's new designer family homes come with en suite bathrooms and a teenager's den in the attic

Henley’s summer rowing regatta is a social calendar highlight. The blazers-and-boaters crowd descend to drink Pimm’s in the colourful marquees, giving the Oxfordshire Thames-side town an annual shot in the arm. But for the rest of the time, it remains settled and prosperous with a 45-minute commute to London on the Paddington train.

Rotherfield Garth is a scheme of Arts and Crafts-style detached houses on the edge of the town.

“You turn right for highly rated schools, open countryside and golf courses, and left for the high street and train station,” says Richard Page, director of developer Spitfire Bespoke Homes, which has come up with the design for these family houses with a grand entrance hall and spacious ground floors opening on to the lush gardens.

There is a separate dining room and lounge, a study, comfortable bedrooms with walk-in wardrobes and en suite bathroom, and a teenager’s den in the attic. Each house has its own driveway and double garage.

They come at a posh price — from £2,895,000. Call 01491 844900.
