The property comes with a library, swimming pool, pool house, cottage, greenhouse, and even a boathouse and it sits on five acres of land and has its own private island, perfect for anyone who loves their privacy.<\/p>\n
The house lies in Cookham Dean which is south of the river from Marlow and just north of Maidenhead. <\/p>\n
The interior of the property is just as whimsical as its exterior. <\/p>\n
For example, the reception is oak-panelled and features an open fireplace, a stained glass window, and panelled ceiling, which makes it look like a Scottish Hunting Lodge. <\/p>\n
Another interesting historical note is the fact that Kenneth Grahame lived in the area when he wrote his famous book 'The Wind in the Willows.'<\/p>\n
