West Street, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

A beautifully appointed, recently constructed home in a surprisingly private setting considering its outstanding location in the town centre. Superbly presented throughout.

Description

Tucked away along a private road, this substantial home feels secluded, being surrounded by mature greenery and away from the main road. The house is one of just two sizeable, detached residences built in 2016, and offers ample space, light and versatility for both families or executives. The position is ideal for accessing Marlow’s excellent dining establishments, and for families, the town’s acclaimed grammar school is a few hundred metres away. The house is immaculately presented to a very high standard inside and out, featuring an expansive kitchen and entertaining space, a striking contemporary staircase and a fabulous garden that’s perfect for dining alfresco.

The accommodation is well proportioned and has a great layout over three floors, accessed via an inviting entrance hall leading to a double aspect sitting room, L-shaped kitchen and dining room to the rear with adjoining utility room, a study and a cloakroom with WC. The first floor has four good-size bedrooms including three en suite, with a fifth en suite bedroom and storage space on the second floor. The house further benefits from underfloor heating and a security alarm.

A gated entrance opens to a large gravel driveway. A detached outbuilding houses a garage and a covered car port, and there is ample additional parking available. The rear garden is landscaped in a low-maintenance courtyard style, with the tiling creating cohesion between the inside spaces and the garden – making one large space for entertaining during the summer months. The garden is enclosed by mature trees and hedging making it feel extremely private, and there are attractive shrubs throughout. The garden also features a fitted outdoor kitchen with barbecue and pizza oven.

Location

West Street is a highly convenient and desirable location with Bretton Court positioned just a few hundred metres from the ever-popular Hand and Flowers pub – the only pub in the UK with two Michelin stars.

The house is set back from the road with surprising privacy given its central position.

Marlow is a popular location for young families, with numerous schooling options ranging from prep schools to secondary schools. Marlow town offers a superb range of retailers, with an eclectic mix of local independent and national names. There are bars, cafes and restaurants dotted around the town offering destinations for any occasion. Just outside the town, the area opens out to glorious rolling countryside and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Outdoor pursuits are plentiful, as are golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs. For commuters, the town has a train station to Paddington (via Maidenhead) and the M40/M4 motorways are accessed from the A404(M) which passes the town.
