Set on a generous plot in a sought-after Maidenhead pocket, this detached house offers more than 2,800 sq ft of flexible living space and practical parking for several cars. The layout includes three reception rooms, a large ground-floor bedroom with en-suite and five first-floor bedrooms, making this a rare option for multi-generational or growing families. The carriage driveway and attached garage add convenience, while the substantial rear garden offers scope for landscaping or extension (subject to planning).
Priced well below the local average at around £437 per sq ft, the property presents a strong space-to-price ratio in a very affluent area with easy walking access to town centre amenities and the station. Gas central heating, double glazing and solid cavity walls are in place, and broadband speeds are described as fast — useful for working-from-home households.
Buyers should note the house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and shows the typical hallmarks of that era; some updating and modernisation are likely to be needed to suit contemporary tastes. Measurements are for guidance only and services/appliances have not been tested, so a buyer survey is recommended. Council tax is described as quite expensive, which will be a consideration for household budgeting.
Sold with no onward chain, the property is immediately available for those seeking a substantial, adaptable family residence close to good schools and local amenities. The combination of size, plot and location creates clear potential for improvement, investment or longer-term family occupation.
