House For Sale £1,750,000
Built in 1960 under the direction of an American couple working in the UK, Wych Elms is constructed from reclaimed bricks and timbers, with ornate carved timbers on the gables lend the house a historic quality. The home has been thoughtfully refurbished throughout with oak doors, new flooring and carpets, and fresh paint inside and out, giving it an exceptional flow and a wealth of natural light whilst retaining its character, along with its location on a secluded road and a third of an acre plot, is what sets Wych Elms apart from other homes.
Wych Elms offers 2494 sq. Ft of flexible living accommodation with well-proportioned rooms that naturally flow into one another on the ground floor. Upon entering the country home, you are greeted by a large entrance hall and access into a gorgeous cloakroom. A triple aspect drawing room spans the length of the property and features a wonderful inglenook fireplace which gives the room the real wow factor. It’s the perfect place to relax and unwind in the cosy winter evenings ahead!
With stunning Crittall doors opening out to the walled patio, the drawing room neatly wraps around to a dining area which is the ideal space for entertaining family and friends. There is a third reception room to the rear of the property which could be utilised as a playroom for a growing family, a luxury home office, or a second reception room/media room. Positioned right next to the kitchen, the possibilities are endless!
The heart of this home is a beautifully refitted kitchen/breakfast room, featuring granite worktops, an induction hob, Neff appliances, wine fridge, a full height pantry and of course, oodles of storage space.
As you walk up the stairs, you will find that the property has four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with beautiful views., The principal bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite with a delightful outlook over the private, mature garden.
The guest bedroom with en-suite is ideally placed on the other side of the house offering guests their own privacy. Also on this floor is a family bathroom with a stunning shower bath, Corian sink, heated floor and electric mirror.
Subject to Planning Permission, the loft space can be converted to create a decadent principal bedroom and en-suite spanning 1000 sq. Ft.
The wrap-around garden frames the home perfectly with mature borders and a superbly placed Cherry Blossom tree by the five-bar front gate. The garden is laid to lawn with a private walled patio which can be directly accessed from the drawing room and family room. Boasting apple trees, hazel nuts, lime, and walnut, it is a real gardener’s dream!
Lined by a yew tree hedge that is over 110 years old, the gravel driveway can accommodate parking for up to nine cars, with additional space in the double garage. Alternatively, the garage could be used as a home studio with power and lighting, adding to the flexibility of the residence.
The immediate area of Pinkney's Green common, managed by the National Trust, is much loved by dog walkers and nature lovers alike, providing acres of wide open space. The nearby woods and many commons of the Cookham's and Maidenhead add to natural beauty in the area.
Marlow and Maidenhead are both nearby, the former offering independent boutiques and high end dining options aplenty and the latter providing access to Crossrail’s Elizabeth Line. Cookham village is also close by and full of character, with quality dining options. All are within 10-15 minutes’ drive.
There are regular services from Maidenhead to London with fast trains to Paddington taking 17 minutes and at least 5 trains per hour. Access to the M4 at junction 8/9 is under 10 minutes away and the M40 is also close, accessed off the A404.
Schooling in the area is excellent, with Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School in Marlow, Newlands Girls’ School in Maidenhead and Holyport College to name but a few; there are strong junior schools too.
