3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Although bids are invited above 450,000 with a reserve price no more than 10% above this amount, this property can be purchased under the traditional means of buying property in the UK.THE OWNERS VOICEWe bought this property in 2017 as a refurbishment project with the view of creating a home for our son who was planning on moving to the area at the time.However, our circumstances changed and resulted in our son instead moving to London with work which led to us temporarily renting the property until we decided upon our plan for the house.Then in 2020 after a few years of renting out the house, we were hit by the coronavirus pandemic and it was only then we realised the benefits of the huge garden and the ability to have an office separate to the main property at the end of the garden.This was a godsend for the working from home lifestyle as this garden room could double up as an office, play room or even a spare bedroom!Being so close to Furze Platt train station is also really handy with the new Crossrail line which gets me to Canary Wharf in around 50 minutes.We believe this house would be perfect for a family with children as it has plenty of room and lots of opportunity to grow with a family by extending the property if required to create a wonderful, expansive family home.Although bids are invited above 450,000 with a reserve price no more than 10% above this amount, this property can be purchased under the traditional means of buying property in the UK.THE PROPERTYHarrow Lane offers a substantial semi-detached family home with three spacious bedrooms, a large dual-aspect living area along with a recently modernised kitchen and two full bathrooms.Externally, the property benefits from a gated back garden mainly laid to lawn, a front garden, driveway parking for at least two cars, a detached garage and an garden room/office supplied with electricity.There is enormous potential for extension which of course would be subject to planning permission.Planning permission had been sought and approved for a potential development of apartments which would entail demolishing the existing property along with a neighbouring property to create a small residential complex comprising of up to five apartments approximately sixty square meters in size.THE LOCATIONLocated in the sought after town of Maidenhead boasting an array of superb transport connections including the new Crossrail service (Elizabeth Line) which offers frequent and direct services into Central London.Maidenhead also offers access to the M4 and M40 which leads into London, Reading, Wycombe, Oxford and the North, whilst also being just a 25 minute drive from the M25.Leisure and dining offerings include not one, not two, but three Michelin starred restaurants at the Waterside Inn, Hind's Head and Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck as well as many other casual and formal restaurants spread throughout the town.Local gyms include Braywick Leisure Centre, Anytime Fitness and David Lloyd all having been built from new or refurbished in the last three years.Local school offerings are amongst the best in the country boasting five Ofsted rated 'Outstanding' primary schools along with one 'Outstanding' and eight 'Good' secondary schools. Two of these make The Times top 100 schools list with Lowbrook primary school coming in seventh.THE AGENTS VIEWHarrow Lane is a house close to our heart at Abode, we have had the pleasure of finding tenants for this home for the last three to four years and in that time have seen several families that have loved and cared for this house as if it was their own.The families that have rented this house have not had a bad word to say about their time here only moving on due to relocation and their family outgrowing the space that the house has to offer (a problem an owner may not encounter due to the plethora of options for extension that could be available).This house is crying out for a family to take it on and make their own with the abundance of great local schooling options and great transport links.The huge garden and already installed garden room/office is also a major plus point with the continued acceptance of working from home.With three-bedroom houses in short supply in Maidenhead, as cliche as it sounds, it really is not often that a house like this comes to market and we are anticipating a lot of interest so be sure to act fast and secure a viewing so as not miss out.
