5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Beaumont Rise, Marlow, Buckinghamshire SL7

A charming Victorian townhouse in a wonderful town centre character street, coveted for its proximity to the High Street, river and station.

Description
In a sought-after town centre position, Merlindale is a charming Victorian property with amazing potential for personalisation. The semi-detached house was extended approximately 25 years ago and is ripe for personalisation and a bit of modernised by the new owner. The house possesses excellent character, including wood floors and complementary doors, a fireplace in the sitting room, sash windows and a handsome staircase.

The fantastically versatile layout is arranged over three floors, including the added benefit of a cellar on the lower ground floor which is ideal for storage. The ground floor encompasses an open plan sitting room and dining room, with a window to the front and French doors to the rear opening onto the rear garden – the perfect room for entertaining. These rooms are sufficiently spacious that a buyer might separate this area back into two rooms, which would create two lovely reception rooms each directly accessed from the hallway. At the back of the house, the kitchen extension is a stunning double-height room with a vaulted ceiling and a comfortable family area also leading out to the rear garden. The kitchen features wall and base storage, quartz work surfaces and a number of appliances. A cloakroom with WC is tucked under the stairs.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor, as well as a family bath/shower room, and a further two good-size bedrooms on the second floor.

The house is situated about a quarter of a mile from Marlow’s train station, making it an ideal choice for the rail commuter. The house is tucked behind a walled front garden with a traditional tiled path leading to the front door, which is set under a decorative glazed fan light. The rear garden faces south-east and perfectly captures the morning light, with a lovely walled-garden feel. Adjoining the kitchen extension is a secluded block-paved terrace providing ample space for outdoor entertaining; it leads down to a parcel of lawn, a timber summerhouse and a selection of trees and shrubs.

Location
Beaumont Rise is situated in the town centre, ideal for access to Marlow's vibrant High Street and a short distance from Marlow Lock and the station.
