About this property

An exceptional Victorian riverside residence within the desirable village of Bourne End, situated on a private plot with stunning riverside gardens. In a picturesque riverfront setting, Thornbie House is one of Bourne End’s loveliest homes: at over 125 years old it has only had five owners since it was built, which is testament to the property’s charm and location. The substantial Victorian residence is well situated for access to amenities, yet has a very private, idyllic feel that’s sheltered from main roads and neighbouring properties.
