Set in a peaceful Thameside village close to Marlow, this Grade II listed three-bedroom cottage blends period character with practical family space. Vaulted ceilings and leaded casement windows give an immediate sense of charm, while the open-plan kitchen/diner and a generous living room with a feature fireplace create inviting communal areas for everyday life and entertaining. The landscaped private gardens, driveway parking and garage add useful outdoor and storage space, with a separate garden office ideal for working from home.
The property will suit families seeking village living and good local schools; principal bedroom includes an ensuite and two further bedrooms share a family bathroom. Practical extras include a utility/entrance hall and a ground-floor cloakroom. The overall footprint and room proportions are generous for a period cottage and the plot is private with mature planting and pleasant outlooks.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and may complicate repairs. There is a high flooding risk in the area and the EPC is band D. Heating records reference oil-fired central heating, and some data list LPG — prospective purchasers should confirm the current fuel and boiler arrangements. Broadband speeds are reported slow. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
Viewed honestly, the property offers character, village charm and flexible family living but comes with conservation obligations and practical constraints that buyers must factor into maintenance and renovation plans.
