2 bedroom detached house for sale

A charming three-bedroom bungalow situated in a prime setting, close to the Cookham commons

Description

Situated in a semi-rural position just south of Maidenhead, The Toll House is a delightful detached cottage with ample character. The older property has charming features including wood floors, a brick fireplace and wooden window frames, and offers excellent potential for improvement. The property is situated adjacent to Widbrook Common, with private access via a pedestrian gate from the garden; there is also easy access to Battlemead Common – both popular dog walking areas. The bungalow is deceptively spacious and offers over 1000 sq ft of space, with a well-planned and versatile layout that could see one of the bedrooms also used as a reception room. The accommodation comprises a living room with wood-burning stove, a cloakroom with WC, a kitchen, two double bedrooms, a smaller single bedroom and a bathroom. The interiors are well presented and filled with natural light.

The cottage enjoys a semi-rural setting reached via a driveway which loops around from the side to a good-size driveway at the front, where there is a detached car port. An arched gateway opens to a pretty, enclosed garden which is laid to lawn and features a paved terrace wrapping around the front and sides. There are delightful views over the adjoining Common and access via a pedestrian gate.
