This home located just outside of Maidenhead is certainly one of the more pared-back properties in our collection, but it's so well-executed that we felt compelled to include it. The ivory walls, shiny wooden floors and large windows combine together to make the interior feel bright and inviting. while there's plenty of sleek black surface space in the horseshoe-shaped kitchen to whip up family-sized feasts. Out through the French doors, there's a garden that runs around three sides of the house that could very easily be the site of summer lawn games. The centre of Maidenhead sits about seven minutes' drive away when you fancy a meal out or a trip to the theatre. In the other direction, walking routes in the Chiltern Hills AONB can be reached in a similar amount of time.
