Description

Located on a popular residential street, the property is positioned as a mid-terrace between other period properties. With a small front garden as buffer from the pavement, a couple of steps lead up the front door. Once inside the entrance hallway, there is access to the two downstairs rooms, both have period feature fireplaces, a bay window in the front reception room and space for a dining area in the 2nd downstairs room which then leads through to a kitchen at the rear of the house. The kitchen itself is modern and fully appointed to include a gas hob, dishwasher and washing machine. There is also some sizable downstairs storage in the form of a tall under stair cupboard that is accessed from the kitchen. A single, double glazed door provides access out to the a long rear East facing garden. The garden is laid almost entirely to lawn and includes a small garden shed for gardening tools and outdoor furniture. In the summer especially the very bottom of the garden will continue to get the last of the late afternoon sun and would benefit from the creation of a patio sun-trap.

The upstairs, consists of two bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The wide principle bedroom is a very good size covering the entire frontage of the property with two single front facing windows. Although not currently in place, the room enjoys the necessary width to allow for the installation of smart fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom, although smaller in comparison would still be considered a small double and there is the potential to change this into the family bathroom if you instead wished to create a larger 2nd bedroom at the rear of the house in what is now the current bathroom. The family bathroom is fantastically large and grand for a house of this size with the benefit of being able to easily fit a bath tub and separate shower cubicle together. Other similar properties in Marlow have already achieved this, so there is the potential, subject to the normal planning permissions and consents, to add a second staircase and convert the loft space into useable living space, such as a third bedroom.
