Description

Burntwood House is a most impressive family home with over 1700sqft of accommodation situated within easy reach of the River Thames and just a short distance of Marlow’s vibrant High Street.
The property was originally constructed in the 70’s and has been extensively renovated and extended in recent years with an exceptional newly refurbished kitchen and stylishly updated bath and shower rooms. The interiors are contemporary throughout, with luxury touches such as a tasteful décor scheme, bi-fold doors, a Juliet balcony and generous open plan living space. The home further benefits from private driveway parking and a delightful fully landscaped garden to the rear.

On the ground floor, a bright and welcoming entrance hall provides direct access to the principal rooms including a sleek shower room, a good-size bedroom with built-in storage and a private study with great potential to be utilised as an additional bedroom if desired. The open plan kitchen/lounge is a notable highlight complete with useful adjacent utility room benefiting from direct external access, a vast central island, modern freestanding gas fire and bi-fold doors opening to the rear patio, creating a remarkably social indoor/outdoor entertaining space. On the first floor is the principal bedroom benefitting from a stylish en suite bathroom, fitted wardrobes and Juliet balcony plus a further equally spacious double bedroom with built-in storage and en suite facilities.

The house is approached over a good-size resin driveway with parking for a number of vehicles. The rear garden enjoys a favourable southerly aspect and has been beautifully landscaped to include a raised patio perfectly designed for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining with steps leading down to a neat level lawn interspersed with a variety of attractive shrubs and bedding plants with a shed for storage and an area of raised beds to the side of the house. The garden is well enclosed by panel fencing and tall hedges affording a good degree of privacy.
