Penwood Lane, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

A three-bedroom detached chalet-style home on a corner plot, in a popular position in the town being easy access to the High Street and Higginson Park

Description

In a sought-after position, this detached chalet-style house offers spacious and versatile accommodation and good access to Higginson Park and the river, as well as the High Street, station and Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School.

The property was constructed in the 1960s and, though now a little dated internally, offers great potential for development and modernisation. The well-proportioned rooms are arranged over two floors and provide flexible, multipurpose spaces that would suit a variety of homeowners.

On the ground floor, a large L-shaped sitting room opens to a smaller dining room to the rear, which could equally make a great play room or study. There is a separate sitting room and a double bedroom, the latter also providing potential as an additional reception space. To the rear of the house there is a kitchen, with access to the rear garden, as well as a bathroom with WC.

Upstairs there are two good-size double bedrooms, both with eaves storage, and a further bathroom.

The house has a corner position between two leafy, residential roads with pedestrian entrances on both Penwood Lane and Harwood Road. To the side of the house there is a driveway affording off-street parking leading up to a single garage.

The plot is surrounded by mature trees and hedging, while to the rear there is a low-maintenance courtyard style garden which is paved for convenience.
