An outstanding 4-bedroom detached riverside house. Set in large gardens, directly reaching to a very beautiful stretch of the River Thames, with a mooring. For the river lover and boating enthusiast, this is a gem.

Chalmore Gardens is a very sleepy and lovely spot, occupying a rarely available position on the river. This private no through road has only six properties with river frontage, and only five past number 11.

The property has recently undergone a total refit and modernisation to exacting standards throughout, to include a new family bathroom, a new ensuite bathroom, a new fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a bright and airy open plan sitting/dining/living area, and replacement radiators to the ground floor. In addition, the property has been replastered, recarpeted, and freshly decorated throughout. A new boiler was installed in June 2022 and replacement windows have been installed in 2025 to the first floor and to the kitchen, including the back door. The front patio doors and the front door were installed in 2020.

A very beautiful setting, with wonderful views to the river and pastureland beyond, this feels like a rural location yet is within a few minutes' walk of the market town centre, with its excellent amenities, shops, restaurants while only a few minutes' drive to mainline train stations.
