Description

This detached home has a convenient setting one mile from Marlow’s vibrant High Street and is a short distance from both Spinfield and Sir William Borlase schools. The property is well-presented internally and features well-proportioned rooms with a spacious layout and mostly neutral interiors, though would benefit from further improvement in places, allowing an excellent opportunity for personalisation by the incoming purchaser.

The property extends to over 2000 sq ft across two floors, with a floor plan that offers a good amount of versatility with generous open plan living space that lends itself well to growing families. On the ground floor, the home is entered via a welcoming entrance hall leading through an open plan sitting room/dining room with French doors out to an extended garden room creating a fabulous entertaining space, a fully fitted kitchen with generous storage units, and a shower room. There is also a double bedroom on the ground floor, a smaller double bedroom and a third bedroom which is currently used as a home office/study. All downstairs areas benefit from wide sliding doors onto the sunny garden terraces in the south facing rear garden.
Upstairs on the first floor is the principal bedroom which benefits from a handy dressing area and fitted wardrobes, a further equally spacious double bedroom both of which benefit from extensive wardrobes and eaves storage and a family bathroom.

The house is situated in a quiet part of Barnards Hill and is approached over a paved driveway which provides access to an integral single double length garage with a neat parcel of lawn and flowerbeds to the side. To the rear is an attractive south-facing garden which is mostly laid to lawn with a large blossom tree, surrounded by a variety of shrubs and flowerbeds with a patio for outdoor seating and a shed for storage.
