4 bed bungalow for sale

Chiltern Road, Marlow, Bucks SL7

A four-bedroom bungalow with courtyard garden, garage and parking on a sought-after road half a mile from the centre of Marlow, with excellent scope to modernise

Description
Originally built in the 1970s, this detached bungalow is well positioned for both Marlow, the town centre being half a mile away, and the lovely countryside with its many footpaths and bridleways to the north of the town. The bungalow is well presented if somewhat dated and as such presents a fantastic opportunity to modernise or improve to suit the needs of the new owner, subject to permissions. The layout is open plan and has been adapted throughout to be wheelchair accessible, with wide doorways and hallways – the spacious floor plan has good flow and could be easily adapted to create additional reception spaces if desired.

The current layout comprises a spacious sitting room overlooking the courtyard garden, a separate kitchen/breakfast room with internal access to the garage, four good-size bedrooms and family shower room. The house also benefits from an electronically operated front door and solar panels on the roof.

Touraine is situated on a quiet, no through road, accessed via a private paved driveway to the front with access to an attached garage – the latter provides scope to convert (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). Raised flowerbeds separate the property from the road and add a splash of colour. A path leads around the side of the house to a courtyard-style garden which is walled and offers lovely elevated views back over Marlow. The garden is inset with a covered swimming pool and has ample space for outdoor entertaining, while mature shrubs around the boundary provide seasonal interest.

Location
Chiltern Road is a highly sought-after cul de sac situated to the north of Marlow, bordering open countryside to the west. The very convenient setting is just a half a mile from the Hand & Flowers pub – the only pub in the UK to have two Michelin stars – and the same distance from the vibrant High Street. The town allotments run north from Chiltern Road, providing an exciting opportunity for keen gardeners.

Marlow is a popular location for families, with numerous schooling options ranging from prep schools to secondary schools. Marlow town offers a superb range of retailers, with an eclectic mix of local independent and national names. There are bars, cafes and restaurants dotted around the town offering destinations for any occasion. Just outside the town, the area opens out to glorious rolling countryside and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Outdoor pursuits are plentiful, as are golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs. For commuters, the town has a train station to Paddington (1 mile away, via Maidenhead) and the M40/M4 motorways are accessed from the A404(M) which passes the town.
