4 bed detached house for sale

Marlow Bottom, Marlow SL7

This four-bedroom renovated detached home offers an exceptional balance of flexibility, style and outdoor living, with previous planning permission providing further potential to extend, subject to the necessary consents.

Set back from the road in the heart of Marlow Bottom, the property has been thoughtfully remodelled to create bright, contemporary living spaces that adapt effortlessly to modern family life. The welcoming entrance hall leads through to a spacious dual-aspect sitting room filled with natural light, while the kitchen forms the heart of the home with easy access to the garden beyond.

One of the home's greatest strengths is its versatility. The ground floor offers an additional room that could equally serve as a fourth bedroom, guest room, playroom or home office, complemented by a stylish family bathroom. Upstairs, the inviting dual-aspect principal bedroom enjoys its own modern en suite, alongside two further well-proportioned bedrooms.

Step outside and it's easy to see why the current owners have loved living here. The beautifully landscaped rear garden has been designed to make the most of its elevated position, offering a wonderful sense of privacy and sweeping views across the surrounding greenery. Multiple seating areas create spaces to enjoy everything from morning coffee to summer entertaining, while the generous lawn provides plenty of room for children to play or simply relax in the sun.

At the top of the garden, a gate opens directly onto protected woodland and footpaths, allowing countryside walks to begin from your own back garden. A large, insulated garden room offers further flexibility as a home office, gym or hobby space.

Practicality has not been overlooked either. The property benefits from ample driveway parking, an EV charging point, a recently replaced boiler, modern windows and doors and a water softener. Previous planning permission to extend also demonstrates the potential to create additional accommodation in the future, subject to renewal and the necessary consents.

The Seller Says:

“What we’ve loved most about living here is the feeling of privacy and being surrounded by nature. The light moves around the house beautifully throughout the day, from morning sun in the kitchen and breakfast room to the lounge in the afternoon. The garden has been a huge part of family life too- the patio gives us a lovely mix of sun and shade, while the deck catches the sun into the evening and has been the setting for countless barbecues with friends.

Having the woodland directly behind us has been incredibly special. We can simply open the back gate and head out for a walk, and some of our favourite memories are of the children building dens, playing on the rope swings and having picnics in the woods. We’ll really miss the community, our neighbours, the peaceful setting and summer evenings outside listening to the trees - it’s been a wonderful family home, with plenty of opportunity for the next owners to make it their own.”
