Claremont Road, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

A semi-detached four-bedroom townhouse situated in the heart of Marlow close to the station and High Street, with beautifully landscaped gardens.

Description

This semi-detached townhouse enjoys a desirable, leafy position a level walk from the station and Marlow’s vibrant High Street, with its excellent selection of shops and restaurant, on one of the town’s best roads. This Victorian House has been extended and extensively modernised to create a highly individual home, with beautifully appointed interiors featuring original elements, like a window seat and tiled fireplace, beautifully complemented by contemporary additions. The house has been subject to a programme of improvements in recent years, including a new boiler, an updated kitchen by local company Redline, a loft extension in 2011 and full cosmetic redecoration. A further highlight is the landscaped garden, which was renovated in 2022 by Rachel Platt, double RHS Silver Medal award winner.

The immaculately presented interiors are tastefully and elegantly decorated, and feature plenty of storage options including built-in cabinetry in the sitting room and a fantastically well-equipped kitchen, which also includes quartz work surfaces and a range of premium integrated appliances. The kitchen and its open plan design with the reception area creates a fabulous living space which flows onto the garden via a set of sliding glazed doors, further increasing the space for entertaining in the warmer months. Upstairs there are two good-size double bedrooms, both with built-in storage, on the first floor, in addition to a family bathroom with bath, shower and twin vanity unit. There are a further two bedrooms on the second floor, with one currently used as a study, as well as a second bathroom.

Outside
To the rear of the house there is a truly stunning town garden which has been thoughtfully and skillfully landscaped by an award winning garden designer. Clever use of trellis, raised beds and a pergola has created a series of outdoor ‘rooms’, perfect for entertaining, quiet relaxation outside and space to work within the detached studio at the end of the garden, which makes a fantastic studio or home office. Several seating areas provide space for outdoor dining or reading, there are a wide variety of shrubs and flowering plants to create colour and interest all year round, and the garden is unobtrusively lit by outdoor lighting, making it particularly atmospheric after dark. On-street parking is available on Claremont Road.
