Freehold
Description
Tucked away along a private driveway in an enviable position on the River Thames, this Grade II listed character home offers a unique opportunity to acquire a truly special property with direct river frontage, extensive gardens, and substantial ancillary accommodation.
The house enjoys uninterrupted views across the river and the idyllic island opposite, which is protected from development, ensuring the outlook remains timeless and unspoiled. Most principal rooms take full advantage of these breathtaking vistas, while the landscaped garden gently slopes down towards the private moorings and river edge. Despite the property`s waterside setting, it is reassuringly elevated and lies safely beyond the reach of flooding.
A highlight of the property is the attached barn conversion, currently operating as a highly successful rental (details available from Winterbrook). With its own private entrance, secluded garden, independent gas and electricity supplies, and a discreet link door to the main house, the barn provides exceptional versatility ideal as an income-generating investment, multi-generational living, or guest accommodation.
This is the first time in over three decades that the property has been offered for sale, presenting a rare chance to acquire a riverside residence of such history, charm, and potential.
