Marlow Lodge has an enviable setting within Marlow town centre, within striking distance of the station and the High Street on a popular road, yet tucked away down a long driveway making it feel exceptionally private. The imposing Victorian home is fantastically characterful – with its original features including picture rails, ceiling roses and fabulous ornate fireplaces – yet has been sympathetically and extensively renovated throughout, with modern touches skilfully incorporated with the period elements of the home. Most notable is the extension to the side, completed in 2018, which incorporates the desirable kitchen and breakfast room.

The high ceilings and capacious proportions make the rooms feel wonderfully airy, and there are various spaces for entertaining. A welcoming reception hall opens to a striking formal dining room and a separate sitting room, both with magnificent fireplaces as a focal point, plus a TV room/snug, a study and a cloakroom with WC. The kitchen and breakfast room is an excellent size and well appointed with premium appliances, and has two sets of bifold doors which reveal lovely views of the garden and, when open, create a wonderful indoor-outdoor dining area.

Upstairs there are six sizeable double bedrooms, including a principal suite with en suite bathroom and separate access to the bedroom next door, which can be used as a dressing room or nursery. There are also two family bathrooms both with bath and showers.

The house is accessed via a shared driveway leading to a gravel driveway and a detached double garage. The gardens are mostly located to the rear of the property, which is overlooked by the striking white rendered elevations including a first-floor balcony, with a small loggia accessed from the two main reception rooms. The gardens are beautifully landscaped with lawns enclosed by established trees and fencing providing a high degree of privacy. There are several spaces to sit and enjoy the outside space, including a new terrace adjoining the kitchen extension. The extension also incorporates a useful garden store.
