The picturesque village of Streatley-on-Thames is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Berkshire side of the river Thames, directly opposite the Oxfordshire village of Goring and almost equidistant between thriving Pangbourne and Wallingford. As such, there is an enormous range of everyday, recreational, cultural and educational facilities nearby. Noted independent schools in the area include The Oratory, Moulsford Prep, Cranford House and Pangbourne College. Connections are excellent, with Goring & Streatley station offering speedy London links and the A34 and M4 (J13) providing convenient road connections.

The property is situated in a garden, which measures out at circa 1.29 acres comprising lawns, curved borders, vegetable plots, greenhouses, fruit cages containing raspberries, gooseberries, blackcurrants and rhubarb and a considerable paved sun terrace. A large secluded pond lies at the top of the garden with plum and apple trees. The driveway and detached outbuildings offer ample parking with a double garage, workshop, store, shed and plant rooms.
