Marigay is an exceptional 2 acre plot of land in the idyllic village of Russell's Water outside Henley-on-Thames. This south-west backing plot benefits from planning permission for a luxurious new home in excess of 5,000 sq.ft, and boasts wonderful views across an unspoilt Chilterns AONB landscape.
Marigay is currently a detached bungalow occupying a unique valley ridge position in the Chilterns AONB. The plot represents a fantastic opportunity for a self-builder to construct an exceptional house to suit their own tastes, in an area synonymous with exclusive countryside property and some of the best landscape views in Oxfordshire.
