About this property

  • Only a short distance from the Thames and ideally situated in Bourne End's desirable Abbotswood Estate, this chalet-style detached property affords generously proportioned light-filled living spaces in one of Marlow's most coveted residential roads. The versatile layout provides ample space for families including up to five bedrooms, three reception rooms and a conservatory, making it ideal for the demands of busy family life as well as entertaining. The interiors are fantastically bright and airy and offer excellent natural light throughout thanks to large windows and generously proportioned rooms. The house has been subject to a number of improvements over the years, including various extensions, and planning permission has been granted for further alterations. There is excellent scope to develop the house further to suit the requirements of the new owner (subject to permissions), though the house is ready for immediate occupation and personalisation.

    The flexible floor plan is accessed via a spacious entrance hall leading to the extensive ground floor accommodation, which comprises a lounge and an adjoining sitting room, connected by double doors; an open plan kitchen and dining room opening to a conservatory that's perfectly angled to capture the morning sun; an office; a utility room with space for laundry machines; and a shower room with WC. The playroom has access to two double bedrooms, making it an ideal space for older children, and upstairs there are three double bedrooms including a principal bedroom with en suite, plus a family bathroom.

    Outside
    The house is set within well established mature gardens and is approached over an electronically operated gated driveway with secure keypad entryphone access. There is ample off-street parking on a low-maintenance gravel driveway and the added benefit of a detached double garage. The gardens to the rear wrap around three sides of the house and are attractively landscaped with mature trees around the boundary, which is fully enclosed by wooden panel fencing. The level lawn is bordered by mature shrubs and there is a paved terrace which links the back of the house with the detached summerhouse to the rear, which has bifold doors to the front and would make an excellent home office or gym.
