About this property

There is a separate summer house extending to around 750 sq ft offering a reception area with kitchen facilities, a bedroom, shower room and separate cloakroom. The summer house is set next to the outdoor pool creating a wonderful recreation and entertaining area.
Gardens and Grounds
Seawards is set in a plot of about 1.9 acres, divided into formal gardens, a pool area and woodland beyond. The gardens are thoughtfully laid out, with formal areas of landscaping to the front including box parterre and lavender borders, lawns bordered by mature trees and hedging and a number of terraces for seating. Situated in a secluded, separate area to the main house is the pool house and its adjoining swimming pool, inset within a sizeable terrace which is partly shaded by the summer house. The house is accessed by a grand entrance and a sweeping driveway shared with the neighbouring house, and has extensive private parking in addition to a detached triple garage. There is a lovely area of woodland to the west of the garden, leading to a public footpath to Marlow.
Seawards sits in an elevated location on Winter Hill close to the village of Cookham on the Berkshire/Buckinghamshire borders in the hills above the River Thames, approximately 25 miles from central London.
