Welcome to Thames Cottage
Thames Cottage has a colourful history. The renovated property, now a fabulous family home, was once the Star and Garter alehouse.
There's a spacious dining/entertaining space immediately upon entrance to Thames Cottage.
Also on the ground floor you will find the stylish kitchen area. The mash up of country Delft tiles with modern grey gloss units gives this room a contemporary country feel.
The first floor provides a fabulous double reception room overlooking the river. With riverside properties the main living rooms are often situated on the first floor, making the most of the position to offer the best views.
