A rare waterside home in Old Leigh, The Old Customs House combines Grade-era character with a high-spec modern refit. Lovingly refurbished throughout, the house offers large rooms, high-quality fitted kitchen appliances and a private sauna — ready for immediate occupation and sold freehold with no onward chain.
The property’s standout strengths are its estuary-facing principal rooms and bespoke open-plan kitchen fitted with Siemens, Neff and a Bora induction hob. The house provides four double bedrooms across multiple floors, generous reception spaces with working fireplaces, ample built-in storage and a flexible ground-floor room currently used as a gym.
Practical realities to note: outdoor space is modest — limited to an entrance courtyard and small rear patio rather than a full garden — and there are neighbour access rights across the courtyard. The building is a solid-brick, pre-1900 construction with some original single-glazed sash elements and assumed lack of wall insulation, which may affect long-term energy performance despite modern heating and double glazing in parts.
Positioned moments from Strand Wharf, local cafés, pubs and Leigh station, this property suits a family seeking a characterful coastal home or a buyer wanting a lifestyle residence with easy London links. Its size, period charm and high-spec interior mean this is a rare opportunity in a highly sought-after conservation setting.
