Frieth Road, Marlow SL7

Located along the tranquil Frieth Road on the northwestern fringe of Marlow, number 46 is a captivating detached home with far-reaching views across the valley and the rolling countryside beyond. Set within 1.54 acres, this charming residence blends rural seclusion with remarkable convenience, offering a lifestyle that feels a world away yet remains within easy reach of the vibrant town centre.

Originally a bungalow, the property was thoughtfully extended and reconfigured in the 1980s to create a spacious and light-filled family home. The interiors are well-presented and versatile, designed to make the most of the sweeping landscape through large windows and sliding doors that connect the living spaces directly to the gardens beyond. The accommodation flows beautifully, with three reception rooms, a generous kitchen with adjoining utility room, and two ground floor bedrooms. Upstairs, three further double bedrooms offer lovely elevated views, with the main bedroom benefitting from an en-suite and a private balcony—an ideal spot for morning coffee or evening sunsets.

Outside, the home continues to impress. A walled front garden and mature planting provide a welcoming and private entrance, complemented by ample off-street parking and a detached double garage with useful storage and a separate office space. The rear garden is a true sanctuary, with a beautifully landscaped design that embraces the natural slope of the land. A heated swimming pool is set into a smart wooden deck, perfectly positioned to enjoy the afternoon sun, and there is a pool house for added convenience. Beyond the formal garden, equestrian facilities include a stable block with a tack room and two adjoining paddocks accessed via a wooden five-bar gate. With extensive outriding on the doorstep and easy access to local equestrian centres, it’s a dream for horse lovers.

Positioned just west of the charming hamlet of Bovingdon Green and moments from the open expanses of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the location offers both peace and practicality. Marlow itself is just a short drive away, offering an enticing blend of boutique shopping, riverside dining and excellent schools. The area is particularly popular with families, thanks to a wide choice of educational options including several well-regarded primary schools, Great Marlow School and the highly sought-after Sir William Borlase Grammar School. There are also a number of respected independent schools within easy reach.

For commuters, the property is ideally located with easy access to both the M40 and M4 motorways via the A404, providing links to London, Heathrow and beyond. Marlow station offers direct services to London Paddington via Maidenhead, now benefitting from the high-speed Elizabeth Line.
