4 bedroom detached house for sale

Having been skilfully converted in 1997, School Cottage is a delightful family home which has been enjoyed by the current family for almost 20 years. It is attractive and full of character, offering light and flexible accommodation.

To the ground floor are two reception rooms, one of which features a brick fireplace and a beamed ceiling, with the principal living space opening to a large conservatory with lovely views down the length of the rear gardens.

The kitchen / dining room is well proportioned and offers a range of fitted units, stone worktops and integrated appliances. There is ample space for a dining table and sofa and, with its lovely dual aspect views over the adjacent courtyard and gardens, it is a space where the family have spent a great deal of time over the years.

Completing the ground floor is a practical utility room and separate cloakroom. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, including the master with ensuite bath/shower room and built in wardrobes, two further double bedrooms and a single room, the latter of which is currently being used as a home office. These are serviced by a three piece family bathroom suite.

The property and its two neighbours are approached via a discreet driveway off Henley Road. There is a detached double garage and driveway parking for 3 cars. The gardens lie on two sides of the home, the main lawned garden lying to the rear and another adjacent to the double doors that open from the kitchen.

Nestled in the idyllic Stubbings area, equidistant from Maidenhead and Marlow, the property enjoys a convenient yet discreet semi rural location, with many acres of National Trust Land close by at Maidenhead Thicket and Pinkneys Green.

Maidenhead town offers a wide range of amenities including an indoor shopping precinct, a multiplex cinema and numerous bars and restaurants, including the world renowned 3 Michelin Star ‘The Fat Duck’ and ‘The Waterside Inn’ in Bray.

The pretty riverside market town of Marlow offers a selection of charming boutiques, with high end brands including Mint Velvet and JoJo Maman Bebe. It has a vibrant food scene comprising rustic pubs, independent restaurants and high street favourites, including ‘The Hand & Flowers’, the only pub in the UK to hold 2 Michelin Stars.

The property is ideally situated for the commuter with Maidenhead’s railway station offering mainline services to London Paddington, and the Elizabeth Line offering fast direct services to the West End, City and Canary Wharf. By road, the A404 connects to J8/9 of the M4 providing access to the M25, Central London, Heathrow Airport and the West Country.

In terms of schooling, the property sits within catchment of a number of very well regarded state and grammar schools.
