Spinfield Lane, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

A bright, modern and highly finished family home in the favourable western side of Marlow town centre, with southwest-facing landscaped gardens.

Description

Applewood is a striking detached home situated in a prime Marlow position, in an ideal setting for families. The house was built in the late 1960s but has been significantly updated in recent years, with well proportioned accommodation that has been tastefully modernised by the owner. The attractively appointed accommodation perfectly balances space for entertaining and family life, with bright, open living spaces that can be opened up or closed off to suit, spacious bedrooms and seamless access to a fantastic, private south west facing garden, further increasing the living space in the warmer months via a series of sliding glazed doors. The décor is modern and finished to a high standard, featuring pops of colour throughout that make the house feel light and fresh. Much of the ground floor is laid to engineered wood flooring with underfloor heating.

The living spaces comprise a large, open plan kitchen/dining/family room at the back of the house, which opens to a utility area and shower room. There are two further formal reception rooms: one off the main entrance hallway and one off the living space, which would equally make a great play room, study or 6th bedroom. Upstairs there are five good-size bedrooms, including a fabulous principal bedroom with Juliet balcony and en suite shower room. The remaining four bedrooms have the benifit of sharing a family bathroom and seperate shower room.

Outside
The house is tucked away from the main roads and is set back behind a good-size gravel driveway with space for several cars and access to the garage. There are mature trees around the boundary, most notably in the south west rear garden, where there are apple trees and palms, attractive raised borders and secluded areas for outdoor dining. A large entertaining space, laid to stone tiles and decking, spans the back of the house.

The Garden studio in the rear garden is timber clad with insulated walls, separate power supply lighting and double glazed windows. This is currently used as a games room and would make a great gym or home office.
