St Peter Street, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

A superbly located three-bedroom townhouse with garage, in the heart of Marlow just moments from the High Street and the river Thames.

Description

Fitzroy House is set in the centre of Marlow, on an architecturally significant road with a popular pub and slipway access to the Thames at the southern end, and to the Thames Path on Mill Road via a pedestrian walkway. The road is very convenient for all of Marlow’s many attractions and is moments from the shops and restaurants of the High Street and less than half a mile from the station, making it the ideal home for the rail commuter. The property is built in the Neo Georgian style and blends beautifully with the older properties along the road, as it is constructed in similar red brick with sash windows, a grand pedimented entrance and external shutters. Internally it’s well presented with neutral interiors, a stylish white gloss kitchen featuring integrated appliances and plenty of storage and modern bath and shower rooms.

The layout has good flow throughout, with the entrance hall opening to a study area and a cloakroom with WC, the open plan sitting and dining room overlooking the rear garden and the separate kitchen. Upstairs there’s a very large principal bedroom with built-in storage, two further bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room. Overall there are surprisingly high ceilings giving a sense of volume and space. There is possible scope to extend the house to the rear if needed, subject of course to obtaining planning consent.

The rear garden is a charming walled space featuring a central lawn bordered by a wide variety of shrubs, trees and flowers. On-street parking is available on St. Peter Street and requires a residents’ permit, but there is also a garage included within the sale in the adjacent close – Fisherman’s Retreat.
