Rafts Cottage is a rare, newly renovated Grade II-listed riverside home with direct mooring and uninterrupted views of the River Thames and Windsor Castle. Set over three floors, the property offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms, a dramatic principal suite with vaulted ceiling, and a generous open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room that celebrates the waterfront aspect.
The refurbishment includes underfloor heating, natural stone tiling, bespoke joinery and modern systems while retaining historic beams and character. This chain-free home suits buyers seeking a unique riverside residence with immediate move-in condition and strong lifestyle appeal in central Eton.
Important practical points: the listed status will restrict some alterations and may cause administrative delays; the building dates from c.1800 and has solid brick walls assumed without insulation. There is medium flood risk and gated parking for one car only (plus permit parking), while council tax is noted as quite expensive. The property sits in a very affluent area but local crime levels are reported as high.
Overall this is a high-spec, characterful townhouse for purchasers prioritising waterside living, period detail and proximity to Eton/Windsor amenities and schools. Buyers planning significant structural or thermal upgrades should allow for listed-building consents and specialist works.
