Description

This is a great opportunity to purchase a riverside home in central Marlow. The Rosary has been modified and extended over time with the last addition of the bedroom wing in the 1980's. and has been used as a family home by the current owners for over 10 years. Set on Lock Island and overlooking the River Thames, this is a truly wonderful spot. The Rosary is one of 14 private residences on this private island, all within a short walk into Marlow town centre. The property has its own mooring and riverside gardens and is located on the south west side with great views. Approximately 150 ft of river frontage and 0.45 acres of plot in total.
One of the main highlights of this property is the detached boathouse, which has undergone renovation, with wet mooring space for multiple river boats and has a room above which the vendors use as an office.
The property has worked really well for both entertaining and family living with a generous sitting room and dining room, there is a conservatory to the rear aspect providing views over the river. A bedroom wing leads to three spacious double bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite shower room, the family bathroom and cloakroom. There is a kitchen off the reception hall with utility/boot room and a family room which could be used as a fourth or guest bedroom. Some of the homes on Lock Island have been re-modelled and re-built in recent times and The Rosary provides scope for improvement or with the relevant permissions replacing with a more modern design of home, although there is something special about the existing home.

Outside

There are super garden spaces that come with the property, both riverside gardens leading down to the river, with views up and down stream, and a private walled garden with a larger area of lawn, planted and well stocked borders and mature trees. Dotted around the property are seating and entertaining spaces with the obligatory views of the river. There are several storage spaces and a greenhouse within the walled garden. The property has a double garage and parking area to the front located on Mill Road, as Lock Island has no vehicular access. A pathway leads from Marlow Lock through the Island and to the house.

Situation

The property offers a short walk to Marlow's vibrant High Street, excellent schooling, and railway station for access to Paddington via Maidenhead. There is a wide variety of pubs, bars and restaurants catering for all tastes and budgets. There is convenient access to the M40 & M4 via the A404 bypass with Heathrow Airport only 22 miles away. Lock island is set between the lock and the weir and being on the downstream side of the weir, the majority of river traffic passes through the lock and away from the property.
