Location

Eldon Cotage is set within the heart of the picturesque Cookham village, which has a thriving community and is set within glorious rolling countryside in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is situated on the banks of the river Thames and the Thames Path follows the river through the village, providing a scenic walk from Cookham to Marlow. Outdoor pursuits are numerous in and around the village, as are golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs.

There are three primary schools and three nursery schools situated in Cookham, with a comprehensive range of private and state schooling options in the area including Sir William Borlase's Grammar School, Beaconsfield High School, Eton, Harrow, Wycombe Abbey, Caldicot Preparatory School and some excellent schools in the Maidenhead, Marlow and Henley area.

Cookham is delightfully rural, yet perfectly positioned for access to both Marlow and Maidenhead where you will find a more extensive mix of bars, cafés and restaurants, as well as an eclectic range of local independent and national retailers.

For commuters, Cookham has a train station with a service to Paddington (via Maidenhead) in as little as 31 minutes, with an Elizabeth Line connection into central London from Maidenhead. The M40 and M4 motorways are easily accessible.

Description

This charming cottage enjoys a central setting on Cookham's thriving High Street, on the doorstep of its plentiful variety of shops, services, cafes and restaurants. The Victorian cottage is a classic red brick terraced property, with a charming appearance from the street. Inside, however, the property has been extended and fully modernised to a high standard, including cosmetic redecoration from top to bottom, rewiring, a new McEvoy & Rowley kitchen and a stylish bathroom with freestanding bathtub. The house is suited to a range of buyers and is currently let, making it equally suitable as an investment property.

The interiors are beautifully presented throughout with a light, neutral design, enhanced by premium touches such as washed oak internal doors. The kitchen features hardwood engineered flooring, a circular breakfast bar and a host of integrated appliances including an induction hob and a wine fridge. Adjoining the kitchen is a utility room with a door to the garden and a separate cloakroom with WC. The ground floor also features a dining room with French windows and, at the front of the house, an inviting sitting room with shutters on the windows.

Upstairs there are two good-size bedrooms – the principal bedroom has excellent storage – and there is a bathroom with underfloor heating, a bath and separate shower.

Eldon Cottage is set directly on the High Street, with on-street parking available locally (permit required). To the rear there is an enclosed & private, low maintenance courtyard-style garden which is paved and has an access gate to the rear. The garden is planted with a number of trees and shrubs around the boundary.
