Description

A rare opportunity to acquire The Old Wharf, a four bedroom detached family home with exceptional water views available for the first time since 1947. No onward chain.
The property occupies an enviable position in the heart of Wendover, benefiting from a rare water frontage, with impressive and picturesque views extending along the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal, creating a truly unique setting. The combination of this setting, scale and potential makes this a particularly unusual property, with opportunities for a new owner to create a truly exceptional home. The accommodation extends to over 2,800 sq ft, providing generous living space across the existing layout, with considerable scope for further extension and improvement, subject to the necessary planning consents. The current accommodation includes entrance hall, large dual aspect living room, separate dining room, kitchen, utility room, walk in pantry and a large barn which is accessed internally. The barn has potential to be converted into a truly outstanding kitchen / living area. The first floor enjoys the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, three further spacious double bedrooms, and a family shower room. A particularly attractive feature is the generous established rear garden, enjoying a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity. Predominantly laid to lawn and surrounded by mature trees and planting, it provides a peaceful, secluded setting. There is a separate garden area, which is is fully enclosed, and enjoys a good size lawned area as well as well established trees.
The property is offered with no upper chain, making it an attractive proposition for those looking for a straightforward move, while its proximity to local schools provides an additional practical advantage for families. Outside, there is an exceptionally generous driveway comfortably providing parking for comfortably seven or more vehicles, together with a double garage featuring electric remote-controlled doors. Properties offering this combination of space, water frontage, central Wendover living and significant potential are exceptionally rare, and this is an opportunity that is unlikely to come along again for many years.
