Sold by online probate auction with a six-week completion, this vacant four-bedroom detached house sits in the heart of Maidenhead close to the River Thames and Boulters Lock. The property is a period-style, timber-framed façade on a large, walled plot that offers significant privacy and mature landscaping.
The house requires full refurbishment and modernisation throughout; it offers excellent scope for improvement and possible extension subject to planning permission. Structural or services issues are not specified, but the property has cavity walls likely without insulation and will need updating to current standards, including electrics, heating efficiency and cosmetic works.
Location is a major draw: Maidenhead station provides rapid rail links to London, a wide choice of good and independent schools is nearby, and town-centre amenities and riverside leisure are within easy reach. Note the property is in a medium flood-risk area and has quite expensive council tax. These factors should be considered alongside renovation costs and any planning constraints.
