Description

This four-bedroom detached family home is situated within a convenient walking distance of the High Street, making it an appealing prospect for those seeking potential in both renovation and extension. The property has been well-maintained by the current owners, yet offers ample opportunity for personalization and updating to suit modern tastes—subject to obtaining planning permission. The accommodation begins with an inviting entrance porch, leading to a spacious reception hall that features a cloakroom and direct access to an integral garage. The kitchen/breakfast room is generously sized, providing informal dining space alongside practical base and eye-level cabinetry. A utility/store room adjoins this space, equipped with plumbing for a washing machine and offering access to the side of the property. The living room at the rear of the home boasts patio doors that open into the expansive south-facing garden, while double doors connect to what is currently utilized as a dining room; this flexible space could easily transform into a family or playroom. Upstairs, the first floor landing offers a large airing cupboard and loft access. The main bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom, complemented by pleasant views over the garden. Three additional well-proportioned bedrooms share a family bathroom, accommodating various living arrangements. Externally, the substantial rear garden stands out as one of the property's key features, measuring approximately 56 feet in length. It is well-suited for outdoor enjoyment with its flagstone patio area—perfect for morning coffee or al fresco meals—and is bordered by mature shrubs and vibrant flowers that ensure privacy thanks to wood panel fencing. Side gates provide convenient access to this green space. The front of the property is adorned with attractive landscaping including flower beds and a driveway that leads directly to the single garage. Notably, there is also a strip of land at one end of the cul-de-sac that belongs to this property. Located in Marlow—a town renowned for its historic charm along the banks of the River Thames—the property benefits from local amenities including unique shops, historical sites, and various recreational activities. The railway station offers direct access to London via both the Elizabeth Line and GWR services, while nearby major roadways provide straightforward routes toward both the M4 and M40 motorways. Families will appreciate being within reach of excellent educational institutions serving all age groups in Marlow and its surroundings. This property represents not only a comfortable family home but also an opportunity for investment through future enhancements and modifications aligned with personal preferences or market demands.
