Description
Marlow Lodge has an enviable setting within Marlow town centre, within striking distance of the station and the High Street on a popular road, yet tucked away down a long driveway making it feel exceptionally private. The imposing Victorian home is fantastically characterful – with its original features including picture rails, ceiling roses and fabulous ornate fireplaces – yet has been sympathetically and extensively renovated throughout, with modern touches skillfully incorporated with the period elements of the home. Most notable is the extension to the side, completed in 2018, which incorporates the desirable kitchen and breakfast room.
The high ceilings and capacious proportions make the rooms feel wonderfully airy, and there are various spaces for entertaining. A welcoming reception hall opens to a striking formal dining room and a separate sitting room, both with magnificent fireplaces as a focal point, plus a TV room/snug, a study and a cloakroom with WC. The kitchen and breakfast room is an excellent size and well appointed with premium appliances, and has two sets of bifold doors which reveal lovely views of the garden and, when open, create a wonderful indoor-outdoor dining area.
Upstairs there are six sizeable double bedrooms, including a principal suite with en suite bathroom and separate access to the bedroom next door, which can be used as a dressing room or nursery. There are also two family bathrooms both with bath and showers.
The house is accessed via a shared driveway leading to a gravel driveway and a detached double garage. The gardens are mostly located to the rear of the property, which is overlooked by the striking white rendered elevations including a first-floor balcony, with a small loggia accessed from the two main reception rooms. The gardens are beautifully landscaped with lawns enclosed by established trees and fencing providing a high degree of privacy. There are several spaces to sit and enjoy the outside space, including a new terrace adjoining the kitchen extension. The extension also incorporates a useful garden store.
Location
Station Road is situated close to the bottom of Marlow's vibrant High Street and is a short distance from Marlow Lock and the station. Marlow town offers a superb range of retailers, with an eclectic mix of local independent and national names. There are numerous bars, cafes and restaurants dotted around the town offering destinations for any occasion. The town itself is situated on the banks of the river Thames and the Thames Path follows the river through the town.
Just outside Marlow, the area opens out to glorious rolling countryside and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Outdoor pursuits are numerous, as are golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs.
Being a popular location for young families, Marlow offers numerous schooling ranging from prep schools to secondary schools, such as Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School and Great Marlow School.
For commuters, the town has a train station to Paddington (via Maidenhead, with the new Elizabeth Line operating), with fast trains also accessible from High Wycombe providing a 25-minute journey into London Marylebone. The M40/M4 motorways are accessed from the A404 which passes the town.
