6 bed detached house to rent

Stonehouse Lane, Cookham, Berkshire SL6

A highly individual, architecturally designed contemporary home set within beautifully landscaped gardens on the Thames riverfront

Description
Highbank is a modern, architect-designed home in a prime riverside location in Cookham. It sits on a private, south-facing plot with beautiful views over the Thames and its islands, and direct river access with a jetty for a boat.
The house is built into the hillside, so it enjoys great views from most rooms. It has around 4,700 sq ft of flexible living space across three floors, including multiple bedrooms, reception rooms, and the option to create a guest suite or annexe.

Inside, the design is bright and contemporary, with lots of glass bringing in natural light. The kitchen is a standout space, with large windows, modern units, and access to dining and outdoor areas. There are also useful extras like a pantry, laundry room, home office, and a boot room with dog-washing facilities.

Outside, the gardens are arranged over several levels, with terraces for entertaining, a swimming pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, and lawn leading down to the river. The setting is very private, surrounded by trees and shielded from public paths.

The property also includes a gated driveway, a recently built garage and workshop, solar panels, and an electric car charger.

Location
Stonehouse Lane is a no-through road adjoining open countryside within the village of Cookham Dean. It is situated below Winter Hill, part of the National Trust-preserved Cookham Commons, and in close proximity to the river Thames. The commons, including Cock Marsh, are just over half a mile from the house, providing excellent walking and stunning elevated views over the river. Cookham is set within glorious rolling countryside in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are scenic walks along the Thames Path and within the surrounding woodland, with golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs nearby.

There are three primary schools and three nursery schools situated in Cookham, with a comprehensive range of private and state schooling options in the area include Sir William Borlase's Grammar School, Beaconsfield High School, Eton, Harrow, Wycombe Abbey, Caldicot Preparatory School and some excellent schools in the Maidenhead, Marlow and Henley area.

Cookham is delightfully rural, yet perfectly positioned for access to both Marlow and Maidenhead where you will find a more extensive mix of bars, cafés and restaurants, as well as an eclectic range of local independent and national retailers.

For commuters, Cookham has a train station with a service to Paddington (via Maidenhead) in as little as 31 minutes, with an Elizabeth Line connection into central London from Maidenhead. The M40 and M4 motorways are easily accessible via the A404(M).
