Description

Nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac in the desirable town of Marlow, this four-bedroom detached house presents a notable opportunity for renovation and investment. The property is situated on a generous plot, providing ample outdoor space that could be enhanced to suit various lifestyle needs. The ground floor features a spacious living room that flows seamlessly to a south-facing patio, ideal for enjoying the garden's natural light. A separate dining room offers additional space for entertaining, while the modern kitchen accommodates a dining table, making it functional for family meals. An adjoining utility room and a study enhance practicality—particularly valuable for those working from home. Upstairs are four well-proportioned double bedrooms; the master suite includes its own en-suite bathroom, while three of the rooms feature large built-in wardrobes for efficient storage. A family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms. The exterior boasts an expansive garden, bordered by mature plants and laid predominantly to lawn. This private area provides an excellent canvas for outdoor activities or potential landscaping projects. Multiple sheds offer convenient storage solutions, and access via side gates enhances usability. Furthermore, there is a double-length garage along with driveway parking suitable for three vehicles. This property holds significant potential for expansion; plans to extend above the garage may be feasible subject to obtaining necessary planning permissions—a valuable consideration for future enhancements. Marlow itself is celebrated not just for its picturesque riverside setting but also for its strong community spirit and local amenities. The bustling high street features an array of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants and is within easy walking distance or a short drive away. Families will appreciate proximity to reputable schools such as Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School and Spinfield Primary. Transport links are robust here; the A404 and M40/M4 motorways facilitate straightforward commuting, while nearby Marlow Station provides rail services to London Paddington through Maidenhead (including connections via the Elizabeth Line). In summary, this property represents a compelling blend of comfortable family living with significant renovation possibilities in one of Buckinghamshire’s most sought-after locations.
