The house is located on School Hill, a desirable road in Wargrave, very close to the Robert Piggott Primary school. It is centrally located in Wargrave village, about a third of a mile from all the cafes, shops and restaurants in the centre.

Wargrave is a charming village, just 3 miles from Henley-on-Thames and closer still to the local commuter hub of Twyford.

The highly regarded Piggott School (secondary) is set in the village and there are also numerous local organisations, such as the tennis club, two marinas, rowing club and other social clubs, giving Wargrave a close community feel.
