Description
Built in the early 1950s and in the same ownership since the 1970s, this
detached home occupies a particularly generous plot within a mile of both
Bourne End marina and the train station, with easy access to the A404(M) and
Marlow and the river Thames to the south. The property would benefit from some
modernisation, but has well - proportioned rooms throughout and some lovely
features, such as parquet flooring and an aga in the kitchen, and a wood
burning stove in the sitting room.
There is great potential to extend (subject to necessary consents) the
property further to create an exceptional family home. The layout and position
of the house within the plot should make for a very logical extension.
Accessed via a galleried entrance hall complete with a cloakroom, the
accommodation extends to more than 2200 sq ft across two floors. The ground
floor comprises a sitting room, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, pantry,
utility and WC, while upstairs there are four bedrooms, including the dual
aspect principal bedroom, as well as a family bathroom and separate shower
room.
The property boasts a peaceful setting on a desirable private road with
established trees offering a good deal of seclusion. Largely enclosed by
hedging and panel fencing, the wide plot offers excellent development
potential (subject to consent) with ample off - street parking, a garage, large
level lawns, a patio and covered seating area to the rear, and a handy
external store.
Location
The property is located in the thriving village of Bourne End, which is
situated on the banks of the river Thames with its charming marina only a mile
