Spurgrove Lane, Frieth, RG9

The position of the house is wonderfully private, with no overlooking neighbours and woodland to the rear; from each side of the house there are pleasant views over its own gardens and beyond. The tasteful, light-filled interiors are well presented and offer excellent potential for personalisation.
The house is a great size for families, with a selection of well-proportioned reception rooms, four double bedrooms and a light-airy feel throughout. Downstairs, a generous entrance hallway opens to a formal dining room with wood-burning stove and onward to a relaxing study or family room and a fabulous oak-framed sitting room with French windows on three sides. Separately, the kitchen/breakfast room is open plan and has ample space for a table and chairs. The kitchen leads into the utility/laundry area and a useful boot room. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is situated in the extension and has vaulted ceilings, a dressing area and ensuite shower room. There is a further, alternative main bedroom also with its own dressing room and ensuite shower room, two additional double bedrooms and two family bathrooms.

Outside

Tucked away amongst the woodland, set well back from a country lane, Dormer Cottage is quietly positioned at the end of a shared driveway leading to a large, gated private in-and-out parking area to the front of the house which features a variety of mature specimen trees. There is extensive parking to both sides of the property and a detached heritage oak double garage, which has the added benefit of an external staircase leading up to a first-floor studio: perfect for hobbies or working from home. The generous plot, approaching 1.35 acres, also includes an expansive garden to the rear, backed by Mousells Wood, through which there are a number of footpaths. The gardens are open all the way around the house and are attractively landscaped with trees, shrubs and pretty borders, and there are a number of spaces to sit enjoy the views. There are a number of useful outbuildings, including sheds and a garden room.

Situation

The property is situated to the northwest of Marlow in the village of Frieth, approximately half a mile from the centre of the village – with a well regarded pub and a primary school – and five miles from Marlow. Marlow is situated on the banks of the river Thames and has an excellent range of shops, bars and restaurants catering for all tastes, including the popular Hand and Flowers Pub. Surrounding the house is open countryside and woodland, providing an excellent network of footpaths and bridleways, with more extensive options available in the nearby Chiltern Hills. Locally there is a good selection of well-reputed schools, including Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School and Great Marlow School in Marlow, further grammar schools in High Wycombe and a number fantastic options in nearby Henley. The Marlow bypass (A404) connects to the M40 in the north and M4 to the south giving ease of access to Heathrow airport and the City. Marlow’s railway station links to the Elizabeth line at Maidenhead or High Wycombe for London Marylebone.
