Description

An outstanding opportunity with direct river Thames frontage. This large riverside plot contains a detached home requiring total refurbishment, with consent for significant extension.


Description

Offered for sale on the Thames waterfront is this exciting opportunity - a detached property in over half an acre requiring full refurbishment.

Plans for extension are approved, with a wide variety of options allowing for a buyer to create a home that suits their needs. Consent includes a full width extension across the rear of the property alongside detached outbuildings.

The property is set over three storeys providing some particularly extraordinary views to the rear, over the river Thames and the countryside beyond.

A direct river frontage provides good mooring options for larger vessels, alongside a slipway for smaller craft.

Many neighbouring properties along the river bank are particularly sizeable and of considerably higher value, providing ample scope for investment into this project to create an extraordinary home.

(Consent also exists for a substantially larger replacement dwelling, for those who may wish to take that route.)

Location

Stonehouse Lane is a highly coveted ‘no through road’ that runs parallel to the river Thames and adjoins open countryside. Although enjoying a semi-rural setting, it is within easy reach of the motorway network and rail access to London.

Cookham Dean is one of the area’s most coveted locations with countless public footpaths and bridleways dissecting the area through National Trust and Woodland Trust. The wider area opens out to yet more glorious rolling countryside and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

For commuters, Cookham Rise has a train station with a service to Paddington (via Maidenhead), with a Crossrail connection at Maidenhead due in 2021. The M40 and M4 motorways are easily accessed from the A404(M).

Cookham Rise, about 1.5 miles away, also provides a good range of local shops and facilities.

The nearby town of Marlow offers an eclectic mix of local independent and national retailers with numerous bars, cafes and restaurants around the town suited for any occasion.

The wider area opens out to yet more glorious rolling countryside and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is excellent walking within the Thames Valley and Chiltern countryside, boating and sailing on the River Thames and golf at various local courses, including Winter Hill and Temple.

The M4 and M40 motorways both connect with the M25 network and Heathrow, via the M4, is about 20 miles away.

A comprehensive range of private and state schooling options in the area, both primary and secondary, include Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School which is three miles away, Eton, Harrow, Wycombe Abbey, Caldicot Preparatory School and some excellent schools in the Maidenhead and Henley area.

The region is well served for sporting facilities including golf at Maidenhead, Marlow, Temple, Harleyford and Henley golf clubs; horse racing at Windsor, Ascot and Newbury; polo at Smith’s Lawn and The Royal Berkshire Polo Club at Winkfield; boating and sailing on the River Thames and at nearby Henley, home to the renowned Henley Regatta.

Square Footage: 2,897 sq ft


Acreage: 0.58 Acres

Directions

From Marlow town, head away from the High Street over the river and turn left into Quarry Wood Road, continuing along this road up the steep hill to the top of Winter Hill. As the road levels off, follow it keeping to the left at the triangular green and follow Winter Hill for about half a mile, past the impressive viewpoint overlooking the river. Shortly after, take a sharp left into Stonehouse Lane. Mendota can be found about 100m on the left hand side of the road.
