Dating back to the 16th Century, 16 New Street is a 2/3 bedroom, Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Henley-on-Thames. Originally part of a larger house, Barnaby Cottages were originally built in 1582, were divided into 5 separate dwellings in 1788 and were, until recently, Alms Houses in the town. The property retains many of its original features including exposed timbers and polished floorboards, and comprises a sitting room, kitchen, courtyard, downstairs bathroom and 2 bedrooms with an additional walk through room which could be a third bedroom if required.
To the rear of the property is an outdoor store and communal garden with side access.
The property now requires updating, but would make an ideal pied á terre or investment opportunity.
New Street is an elegant street of period properties and designated a Conservation Area in the favoured north side of Henley-on-Thames. At one end of New Street is the central shopping area of the town, and, at the other, the iconic River Thames. Moments away are the Phyllis Court Club, Hotel Du Vin and The Kenton Theatre.
