Light-filled and easygoing, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is the natural gathering point of the house. Shaker-style cabinetry, marble surfaces and integrated appliances make up the culinary scene, while pale-pink walls bring a softer note to the adjoining lounge space. For a seamless indoor-outdoor feel, French windows open directly onto the garden.
An interior-designed four-bedroom countryside cottage with refined furnishings, a leafy garden and rural walks on its doorstep.
A cosy rural hideaway where considered design meets the quintessential pleasures of village life.
Just an hour from central London, Littlewick Green has a quieter pace – centred around a traditional green common. With roots dating back to the Norman Conquest, the village has retained its historic character, and Marlow Cottage sits right at its heart. Beyond the timber doors and gabled porch, the recently renovated four-bedroom home balances original features with a fresh, country-contemporary sensibility – courtesy of interior designer Georgina Lord. Soft colour palettes and tactile furnishings ensure cosiness throughout, plus an electric vehicle charging point makes it easy to head out and explore the surrounding landscape.

The living spaces
Kitchen & dining
Set beneath exposed timber beams, a long dining table and upholstered chairs invite leisurely lunches and dinners that stretch into the evening. Arched windows, dressed with full-length patterned curtains, bring a decorative flair to the room. Draw them closed on wintry evenings for an intimate atmosphere.
Bedrooms & bathrooms
Patterned headboards, tactile furnishings and a palette of pared-back tones give the bedrooms their understated charm – all illuminated with natural light through lattice windows. Two bathrooms introduce a contemporary note, with herringbone tiling and marble surfaces.
Outdoor space
A stone patio and leafy lawn are perfect for warm-weather entertaining, while a studio and gym space at the rear of the garden is set for fitness enthusiasts. Potted blooms and climbing greenery lend a storybook quality to the setting; when it’s time to venture further afield, the local countryside offers woodland walks, riverside paths and opportunities to explore the Thames by boat.
The surroundings
Life in Littlewick Green revolves around its village green, where the resident cricket team takes to the pitch throughout the summer – followed by drinks at the aptly named Cricketers pub. Beyond, a network of rural footpaths and circular trails are set for long walks across the seasons. For a change of pace, the nearby town of Marlow offers independent shops, artisan cafes and an excellent dining scene: celebrate in style at Hand and Flowers, The Coach and The Fat Duck in nearby Bray. Henley-on-Thames brings its own riverside appeal and rich rowing heritage, with its famed annual Royal Regatta. Windsor Castle offers a dose of history and Legoland is set for adrenaline-seekers – while London remains within easy reach for big city adventures.
