Pound Lane, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, SL7

Moments from Higginson Park, a detached, four-bedroom family home with well-presented interiors, off-street parking and a good-size garden.

Description

The house is situated in a great position for families, a stone’s throw from Higginson Park, with its playground and sports clubs, and less than half a mile from the centre of town. It’s a brilliantly walkable position, with plentiful shops and services accessible on foot as well as a number of Marlow’s highly regarded schools. The house is presented to a high standard and enjoys good natural light, with large windows and an open layout to the ground floor highlighting the airy feel. The house has had a number of updates, including a garage conversion to create a versatile space on the ground floor and a two-storey extension to the rear.

The entrance hall opens to a lounge with en suite shower room, which could be used as an additional bedroom. The sizeable sitting room has two large windows enjoying excellent natural light, and there is a further study/snug at the back of the house with access to the garden. The highlight of the house is the open plan kitchen and dining room, which is well appointed with storage and appliances and has the added benefit of an adjoining utility room for laundry machines. Upstairs there are three good-size double bedrooms, a smaller single bedroom and two bath/shower rooms, including one with a fabulous freestanding bath.

A generous frontage sets the scene for a fantastic family home with excellent kerb appeal. In addition to the gravel driveway with space for two cars, there is a pretty front garden stocked with a variety of shrubs and trees, and a pedestrian path leading to a side gate for accessing the rear garden. The latter is an excellent size, with a very private feel afforded by the mature trees and hedges around the boundary, in addition to the modern wooden panel fencing. French windows from the kitchen open to an area of decking and a paved terrace, while the lawn wraps around the side of the house where there is a further paved area.
