Badgers Way, Marlow Bottom, SL7

This link-detached three-storey townhouse is situated on a quiet cul de sac backing onto protected woodland through which there are a number of footpaths leading out into the surrounding countryside, which is part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The house enjoys the best of both worlds, being in a green, semi-rural setting yet it is modern and stylish with well-presented interiors over four floors. The flexible layout of the house makes it ideal for growing families and there is ample space for both entertaining and the demands of busy family life.
The ground floor comprises a family room/bedroom and a shower room/WC, which together make a great space for a teenager or young adult living at home. There is a further bedroom/study on the first floor over the garage while the living accommodation is on the second floor, including an open plan kitchen/dining room and a 21ft sitting room spanning the whole of the front of the house. The kitchen space has been recently re-fitted with granite worktops extending into a breakfast bar and a range of integrated appliances including induction hob, two ovens, dishwasher and wine fridge. Units within the dining area include a pantry cupboard and there are bi-fold doors leading out to the rear terrace and garden.
On the third floor, with lovely views over the surrounding woodland, there are three double bedrooms including the main bedroom with an ensuite shower room, and a well appointed family bath and shower room.

Outside

While the front of the house is on the ground floor, with access to the garage and a parking space, the rear garden is accessible from the second floor due to the contours of the land – the layout of the house has been designed to work with the elevated setting. The kitchen/dining room opens onto a beautiful mature rear garden, which is enclosed by wooden panel fencing and feels very private. The garden is arranged over a number of levels including a good-size terrace for alfresco dining, lawns, well-established flowerbeds and borders and a lovely garden room/office at the rear with additional garden shed.

Situation

The property is situated in the semi-rural village of Marlow Bottom, midway between the towns of Marlow and High Wycombe, both with their excellent range of shopping, restaurants, services and schools. There is a highly regarded village primary school (Burford Combined and Middle School) and a number of excellent establishments within a short distance, including Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School and Wycombe Abbey (for girls). Both the A404 and the M40 are within a short drive, while local rail services at Marlow connect to London via Maidenhead and at High Wycombe to London Marylebone. Marlow offers many outdoor pursuits including rowing and equestrian facilities, cycling, river and countryside walks.
